Fender CP-60S Parlor Acoustic Guitar, with 2-Year Warranty, Natural

The media could not be loaded. So I will start by saying I am a complete beginner. My new years goal for 2023 was to finally learn to play guitar a bit. I do NOT aspire to be an amazing musician or anything. I’m 38 and a stay at home mom. I want to be able to play songs around the fire pit or sing some Christmas songs with my kids. Basic stuff.I first ordered a beginner guitar from Amazon that was super cheap. But. When I started playing it, that’s exactly how it felt. Super cheap. I felt like I was playing a toy. So that same week I decided I needed to spend a little more money and get something a bit more real.I looked and just completely fell in love with the look of this one. I loved the dark wood and the glossy look of this guitar. I was worried about it being too big for me to hold comfortably though.When it arrived, the look of it was just stunning. I mean. It is GORGEOUS! Everyone who sees this guitar gives me compliments. It IS big for me and at first I thought I might return it but couldn’t bare to part with it since it was so stunning.Over the past few months that I’ve had it, I’ve gotten used to the size. The size just feels normal now.I got this in the spring and haven’t devoted much time to trying to learn playing. I mostly watch YouTube videos and did a subscription to the Justin Guitar app for a few months. I can play C, A, G, E, D, a modified F, Em, Am, and Dm. And with my capo that means I can attempt to play many songs.I don’t really have much to compare this guitar to, except for the cheap guitar I bought first, but this guitar is perfect for me.It came tuned and has really for the most part stayed in tune. The sound sounds good to me. I share this video of me playing, but be aware that I’m still getting the hang of pressing the strings close enough to the frets/hard enough to have the notes ring out clear without buzzing. I’m still getting the hang of it.Overall, I think this was a great guitar for me as a complete beginner. I also think it would be perfect for experienced players. It was an AMAZING price! And the look of it is so stunning. The dark wood and glossy finish are jaw-dropping. I’m so pleased with this purchase! And I’m excited to learn to play better.

Can not say enough good things about this guitar! It is high quality, has great sound, really projects nicely! I needed a smaller size that I could comfortably play in my living room or on my back patio that didn’t project so loudly to disturb neighbors. This fits all my needs! Well constructed, beautiful and sounds amazing! I love it!

Great product for playing Guitar, Fender Strings are high quality the balance of the guitar is great for flatpickers and the body has such great resonance that drives the soul to sing and play with joy. I love the texture of the body and the film of lacquer glistens with glory and well made grade of art only known by Fender. A must have for the guitarist who is on the fly and is in need of a high reach neck for good grade playing in the third position. Beautiful tone and rich quality of remark due to great craftsmanship needs more attention and buyers! The price is set right and a great bargain for the good you get.

This guitar looks and feels amazing. I got it because I wanted to learn how to play. The tone is very quality and fun to play overall.

My first acoustic guitar after about a year of using electric, and it's really nice. I'm still a beginner, but this guitar looks and sounds really nice. As some of the other reviews have said, it's a little on the bigger side, but not enough to really bother me or stop me from playing. Definitely worth the price.

It is a nice looking unit, for sure, and I actually like the gloss finish all over, which some have had issue with. Mine had the action a little low, resulting in some quite prevalent fret buzz mostly about halfway up the neck, especially with the crap tens it came with. Barre-chording was not pleasant. At least I think they were tens—I dunno. They were not that great at all whatever they were. Though I considered sending the thing back, I instead upped the gauge to 12 (Martin cheapos) and put a slight shim under the saddle. I used a strip cut from a credit card. The neck was straight, so I did that before I tried easing up the truss rod. Anyway, it plays great all over now, and my son will be psyched for his birthday here in a few days. It is relatively easy to play, even with the higher action. Overall build quality is nice, but it does border on that overbuilt sound. I have an Aria parlor-esque guitar that was comparable in price but is much louder, despite being considerably smaller than this dreadnought size. Overall a good buy. The solid top will improve with age, and the tone even now is very pleasant and loud. A superb strummer and an awesome looker for the two bills.

In my house, especially my parlor, this guitar is legend, played but some of the best pickers in my hood, and all agree, THIS GUITAR IS AWESOME!!! The price point is incredible too! BUY IT NOW!!!

It looks so pretty and sounds amazing I look forward to many years of playing sweet music on my new baby
