Fender CD-60S All-Mahogany Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar

Quick Product Summary

The Fender CD-60S All-Mahogany is an approachable dreadnought acoustic guitar combining a solid mahogany top with mahogany back and sides for a warm, full-bodied sound.

Designed with Fender's comfortable Easy-to-Play neck profile and rolled fingerboard edges, it is an excellent choice for beginners, developing players or experienced guitarists looking for an affordable and dependable acoustic.

What Makes the Fender CD-60S All-Mahogany Special?

A solid mahogany top gives the CD-60S a warm and focused character with plenty of midrange presence, while its dreadnought body provides the projection and low-end response required for confident strumming. Quartersawn scalloped X-bracing helps the top respond naturally to both lighter playing and more forceful rhythm work.

Fender's Easy-to-Play neck is another major feature, combining a comfortable profile with rolled walnut fingerboard edges. The result is a guitar designed to feel welcoming from the first chord while still offering the playability more experienced musicians expect.

Who Is It For?

The CD-60S All-Mahogany is ideal for beginners looking for a quality first acoustic guitar rather than a basic starter instrument.

Its warm tone and traditional dreadnought projection also make it a strong choice for singer-songwriters, home players and experienced guitarists who want an affordable acoustic for rehearsals, songwriting or everyday use.
