Most entry level acoustics feel like a compromise. You know the ones. Laminate tops that sound like cardboard, necks that fight your hand, and a tone that makes you wonder why you even bothered picking it up. The Fender CC-60S is not that guitar. Not even close.

The solid mahogany top is the first thing you notice when you play it. Solid tops breathe and resonate in a way laminate simply cannot replicate. The warmth comes through immediately. The midrange is rich and full. Strumming open chords feels satisfying in a way that makes you want to keep playing, and that is exactly the point. A guitar that makes you want to play is the best guitar you can own regardless of price.

The concert body is smaller than a dreadnought and that matters more than most people realize. It sits against your body naturally. It is comfortable for long practice sessions. Players with smaller frames who have struggled with big bodied guitars pick this one up and immediately feel the difference. The rolled fingerboard edges and easy play neck shape reduce finger fatigue so beginners actually stick with it past the first few weeks instead of giving up because their hand hurts.

Mahogany back and sides add warmth and sustain that works beautifully whether you are strumming chords around a campfire or fingerpicking through a quiet song at home. The walnut fretboard is smooth and durable with a tonal balance that plays fast without feeling slippery. Scalloped X bracing lets the top vibrate more freely which translates to a fuller more resonant sound than you have any right to expect at this price point.

This is one of the most honest guitars on the market. It does not pretend to be something it is not. It is a well built solid top acoustic from Fender that plays great, sounds great, and will still be a joy to play years from now. Players who come into The Pied Piper of Charleston WV and The Pied Piper of New Albany to try this one in person are consistently surprised by how good it sounds unplugged right off the wall.

Come in and play it. Hear what a solid top sounds like. We think you will understand immediately why we stock this one.
