Your general opinion of this product.
This guitar is an absolute piece of garbage. Fender is one of the most reputable guitar makers of all time, but this guitar was made for naive parents who are trying to get their kids to take up a hobby. After two weeks and changing the strings, the machine heads can't keep the strings in tune for any sustained period of time, and the action is so high it will slice into your fingers and cause soars. DO NOT BUY THIS GUITAR.

This is a very lightweight guitar. Feels like it's made out of balsa wood. The rosewood neck is not smooth, and it takes effort to slide your fingers up and down the neck.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
The tone is very one dimensional and muted. Sounds like your hearing a guitar through a wall.
Finish

The "look" of this guitar was it's only redeeming quality.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
The action is wicked terrible. The strings are about 3/4 of an inch off the fretboard and slice into your fingers. Nearly impossible to play.

Your general opinion of this product.
This guitar is absolute garbage. I now see why it was only $200 with an instant rebate. Fender is one of the most highly reputable guitar makers of all time, but this guitar is a complete and utter bust. I've owned this guitar for two weeks now, changed the strings, and adjusted the truss rod and am still unable to keep the strings in tune. Switching from chord to chord, the strings do not stay in pitch, and I am unable to go through chord progressions without having to stop after every chord and re-tune the strings. The actions is terrible: the strings lay 1/2 an inch off the fretboard and tore into my fingers, and I now have calouses. The tone of the guitar sounded muted and very one dimensional. I'm convinced this guitar was designed by Fender for purely aesthetical reasons such as being displayed in magazines or tv commericals as opposed to being a genuine instrument that is playable. DO NOT BUY THIS GUITAR UNLESS YOU WANT SOMETHING PRETTY TO HANG ON YOUR WALL.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
The guitar as a whole is very light. It almost feels like it is made of balsa wood. I polished the neck with guitar polish and it still does not play smoothly. The machine heads DO NOT keep the strings in tune for any sustained period of time.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
The tone sounds very one dimensional, almost as if listening to someone playing a guitar from behind a wall.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
The "look" of this guitar is it's only redeeming quality. Out of the case it looked very nice, and I was extremenly excited to play it, until I did actually play it.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
The action on this guitar was arguably the worst action on any guitar I've ever played. The strings were a 1/2 an inch off the neck and tore into my fingers as I tried to slide them up and down the neck or even play basic chords.

This cd60 is great for the money. Strings aren't too good but you always want to change them when you buy a new guitar. I have alot of more high end guitars an just wanted one that I could take anywhere.
