I just bought my son the Mahogany version of the CD-60S yesterday. He loves it. It's a beautiful guitar, with a very nice tone. For the price these guitars are selling for, it's a great guitar.
I own the Fender CD 60S and in my opinion is the best entry level guitar. The " easy to play " neck ... worth every penny, it makes a huge difference for a beginner.
@@pradiptyabanik596 yes, don't buy it. I own one it's only good for beginners for strumming and tab practice, the sound which comes off when you fingerstyle is not loud enough and lack depth. I tried changing different brand strings still no great differences.

I ordered one today --- Fender CD-60S ( Left-Hand ) Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar - Natural for ... $ 269.00 Canadian dollars. I'll be on cloud 9 when it comes in, in a couple daze. :)
I have a DG5 that was bought new in 2004, all laminate, basswood top, but it sounds amazing. It looks like these CD range of acoustics are the modern progression of the old DG line. But with solid spruce, well that's some deal!
Hm these models are on sale with a pack 155€ solid spruce top,mahogany back and sides,Fender logo,decent tuners,a strap,extra pack of Fender strings,two picks....a no brainer.Im getting one.
I have the Cd 60s SCE 12 string but I need the Cd 60Dreadnought now just need that full tone from the body just sounds so good I have the SA Squier but didn’t compare to the CD60
umm have to disagree. the cheaper electrics for example, or cheaper basses. I own the Ibanez GSRM20B mikro bass at 150$ and it just blows away most of the much more expensive competition. The yamaha pacifica 112j is also better than an affinity squier...
@@lil_weasel219 Yamaha pacifica is a CRAP - a rotten shit. Ibanez electrics are awesome, but they are in the same league with Squire (as far as strat/tele-like guitars go)..
@@lil_weasel219 No. I've got one of their cheapest acoustics (V70) and it is SUPERB. My friend has got GAX30 (it's a copy of Gibson Standard), and it sounds AMAZING and has a good build quality too.
@@DrAgan_tortojed tf do acoustics have to do with electric instruments? But now that you are mentioning acoustics, it is well known that the Yamaha FG800 is the best cheap acoustic in absolute.

Hey!Helpe please,I recently have got a new guitar fender cd60v3 and observed that it's strings have black spots?Why so?I know that strings get Black spots after being used a period of time.
Good video for soundchecking the Fender gitar.👍 The perfect entry level gitar or low cost pro gitar. Comparison: Olmost the same like my Richwood artist series. Same specs, playabilety nut-with body size. The natural mat spray on the richwood is ultra thin and therefore its sound has more tone flavors so to speak and longer sustain becose there is no thick lacker on it not influencing the sound coming from the body. Costing a 100 euros more (2022) therefore... This Fender is a really good one to start with and has a good sound coming from a solid top ! In comparison with a plywood top you will notice rigth away next to each other. The plywood has no tones like cartbord..! Yes there is a 100€ difference from the cheapest gitar. In the end its your wallet that decides. If you are sure you want to play gitar have a solid-top! 😂 Or start with plywood and lateron you can drag it anywere without a case and leave it somewere as a backupp or on the wall for decoration?!
I'm having the same issue! I feel like the yamaha might have a better neck (satin finish) but I like the tone of the fender more (yamaha seems a bit wonky in the mids but the fender has a nice rounded sound with good bass).
@@locodeala6277 yes I have. I decide on the cd60 v3 just a few days later from this comment and I purchased it but unfortunately due to covid 19, I been waiting for my guitar for over 2 months now. it's purchased but guitar center will email me when it is ready for pick up. it was on backorder when I purchased it
@@malc1012 you have the chance to go for the CD60S solid top , believe me i got one recently, the tunes resonate throughtout its solid top . The sound (highs and lows) is much fuller /richer on the solid top. For me its no comparison as prices are also different.
@@subirleo well I can't do much now since i already purchased it and just waiting for pick up over 3 months. ill plan to learn on it and move to 12 string and ill make sure I invest in a great 12 string. thanks for the advice on the 60s
This one is much better - cheap Washburns as well as Yamahas sound too harsh/metallic, that is, overemphasized high tones and shallow low (bass) tones. This Fender is much more "balanced", since its highs sound more "natural" ("woody") and low tones are louder...
Hey guys! Can someon explain me the clear difference between the fender CD-60s and the CC-60s exept from the shape? I'l loving the sound of this series but i am looking for the smallest version since I have a smaller frame. Are there any other differences? can't seem to find a good comparison website/article! thank you
Saskia Hi, the CD series is a Dreadnought (bigger, most popular size) for more bass and volume. CC is a concert, so most likely smaller in size and higher in tone and pitch, meant for people with smaller hands or smaller frames. Hope that helps. I myself am considering this or a Yamaha FG800, not sure which though.
Saskia that other guy explained it pretty well, but here is a great website that sells guitars that have descriptions on all their guitars: www.sweetwater.com/
CD is a dreadnought guitar while CC is concert shaped. The difference is in shape and shape always creates some sound difference. As dreadnaught are good for bass(strumming) , concert guitars are good for fingerstyle.
Hello! My question is regarding guitar purchase, I am beginner and need help choosing between Yamaha F310 (200$), Yamaha F370 (guy selling new for 150$) and Fender CD-60S ALL-MAHOGANY(220$). Please help me choose best guitar because my goal is to learn on it and use it for as long as possible. Thanks!
They are all pretty well the same price, So i would go with the Fender for an X-tra 20 bucks. I know you said you want to keep it as long as possible ... $150.00 for the used one is fine but, The resale value on the Fender name alone will out last a Yamaha's resale value, If you ever did decide to sell or upgrade after a period of time. :)
No problem, just make a knot on the end that goes into the bridge, and a loop on the side of the tuning machines. But expect a less intensive sound, though...
thanks for the comment bro and i want a good strumming guitar to make good chords i think for strumming fender is better compare yamaha it sound like more sound of iron strings liike noice
Hi, it sounds like yours is the Parlour sized model (nice guitar btw!), the CD model is the dreadnought size. Fender also make a Folk sized guitar, the CF60S, which is in-between the Parlour and dreadnought sizes. Hope that helps - Sam

Does it sound significant differend then a spruce-top gitar? These woods tend to sound lower and brigth?
No problems with pulling down the strings in the first fret? I heard story, s about that
