Fender CD-60SCE Dreadnought Cutaway 'Black' Acoustic Electric Guitar

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

The Fender CD-60SCE is a mid-level Classic Design acoustic-electric that takes everything that makes the CD-60S such a capable and popular instrument and adds a single cutaway body and onboard Fishman electronics - making it one of the most complete and genuinely versatile acoustic-electrics available at its price point. The solid spruce top with scalloped X-bracing is the defining tonal advantage over laminate-top alternatives at this price - delivering the warm, balanced, and dynamically responsive acoustic voice that only a solid top can provide, with mahogany back and sides contributing the full-bodied, traditionally balanced tone and natural projection that suits strumming, fingerpicking, and performance equally well.

The Venetian cutaway opens up the upper frets for melodic playing and lead work, while the Fender-exclusive CD-1 Fishman pickup and preamp system with built-in tuner delivers reliable, natural-sounding amplified performance for small stages, open mics, and recording. The easy-to-play neck shape with rolled walnut fingerboard edges significantly reduces the finger discomfort that challenges developing players, making this a guitar that suits a wide range of experience levels from improving beginners through to confident intermediate players who want a capable stage-ready acoustic-electric at a sensible price. Available in Black - a bold, distinctive finish that sets this model apart from the natural and sunburst alternatives in the CD series range.
