Have not had a need to get another acoustic

With new strings the sound is as good as any guitar worth 10x the money

I set it up my self to my liking with no problem

Never had any quality issues in the 10+ years I've had this guitar.

My wife bought this for me at least 10 years ago. My first guitar. I think she paid around $300 for it then. From what I've heard of ather guitars ie; Martin etc. she got a very good deal.

Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I hope to get years of play out of it. I checked other name brands and types and this particular guitar appealed to me the most. It had a reasonable price and a reputable name. Should anything ever happen to it(heaven forbid)I'd probably replace with the same. I like the the appearance and solid feel to it. The least thing I like about it is it doesnt teach me how to play(ha-ha).
Sound
I'm no veteran to guitars I'm actually trying to teach myself to play and every time I've gotten an inexpensive no name brand guitar, it seemed to sound off. It just didnt have the resonance to make me even feel motivated to continue learning. The fender I purchased did just the opposite and now I'm considering taking some lessons as opposed to teaching myself.
Features
My guitar is an acoustic fender and has no special features nor does it need any. I'm totally happy with it.
Quality
I've only seen a handful of really nice expensive guitars and considering the price I paid I about the nicest I've seen in its price range.
Value
Based on what I know is well worth the money and less expensive than used models I've seen in pawn shops.
Manufacturer Support
I was impressed with the company, I had to call to confirm something about my order and got a prompt response, and a friendly attitude. Something you rarely experience in the service dept. in many companies.
The Wow Factor
Its just a beautiful guitar.

Musical Style:

My father bought this guitar for me in the fall of 1996 after learning to play on a very beat up borrowed classical guitar. Once I proved my interest wasn’t a phase he decided to buy this for my, I think he paid $360 at the time.Being left handed he knew no one would want to borrow it. I learned to arpeggio on it both fingers and picked, I used it in an alternative band, I played in my Texas high school Mariachi band with it, I was a regular at three coffee shops playing alternative, jazz and rock classics using it exclusively to pay my way to move from Texas to Minnesota before finishing high school. I have 5 guitars more and less expensive than this one, but she always feels and sounds so perfectly right. I would recommend this guitar to anyone looking to play casually or for paid gigs. After 26 years she still sounds and stays in tune just like new if not better. She’s nothing spectacular to look at but that unassuming facade is probably why I appreciate her sound even more.
