Hi everyone

I'm trying to replace a guitar that was given to me as a gift and was recently stolen while on tour. I can't seem to find it no matter how hard I search online. It was very similar to a CD-60, has the Fishman electronics and was around the same price ($300). However, the color was some kind of burst but it was primarily red. It was NOT the sunburst color that I see is available.

Anyone have any idea what kind guitar it was? I'm going crazy here...

Thank you!

At this smartphone time, don't you have one single pic of the guitar..? Would help a lot.
Or, you could ask the person who gave you that guitar.

If those options are totally out of the question, tell us more, describe every detail you remember.
Like:
How old was the guitar?
Are you sure it was like the CD-60; that it had 3+3 tuning machines, not six in line as in the Sonoran SCE, which has CAR as one color option.
Etc.

It definitely had Fishman electronics and it was bought brand new in late 2014 from Sam Ash. Here is the only picture that i have of it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8UIterPdJUFNVNPcXdpT1RoTHJYOFBUeXJZRmcyTG5ySHBN/view?usp=sharing.

Only guessing, but I would say a CD-60CE possibly a FSR color for Sam Ash. If you bought it new from Sam Ash, they must have a record of the sale. Why not contact them and give them the info of when you bought it and ask them what it is?

Looks so similar. I feel like mine was more black around the edges but maybe each is a bit different!

that's the only close match I can find. It's entirely possible the color looked different in person. My Fender acoustic does not exactly match the promotional pics.

That's a cool looking guitar btw, and to the person who stole it: May a diseased yak leave a gift in your sock drawer. :evil:

Check this page: CD-60 CE Redburst
The name of the color is RedBurst as strings10927 wrote, but here the black edges are really prominant. And, it probably is a special color (Limited Edition, Special Edition, Dealer Exclusive, FSR...), because it isn't on the Fender color chart.

PS: There must be a fun story behind the "stolen while touring", "trying to replace it without letting the person i received it from know" combination... Would you mind sharing? :wink:

Yup, I think you solved the mystery! I too am curious what the story is. :)

Thanks for everyone's help tracking this down! I've bought a "like-new" replacement from Reverb.

The backstory isn't really all that interesting but I'll share! The guitar was a Christmas gift from my fiancée. She was very proud that she picked out this nice looking guitar for me to noodle around on (she's not a musician so it was a big deal to find something I liked).

I'm a bass player in a band and I've been touring a bit more the last few years and every time I go out she gets really sad, etc etc. I didn't NEED to bring the acoustic out with me on the road but we had a Sofar Sounds session that we were doing while out on tour so I brought it for my singer to use for that one instance. Morning of the show we realize it's missing from the van, stolen. We were totally bummed but in retrospect it was one of the less-expensive things that could have been stolen so kind of a blessing in a way. I guess it was just the closest thing to the door that someone could grab and run with.

Just really sentimental value to me. I know my fiancée would be crushed if something happened to this nice gift she gave me. On top of me touring and being away weeks at a time, this nice thing she bought me being stolen would put her right over the edge. Maybe rightfully so!

Those pop up acoustic gigs? Love them, post a YouTube link if you have one from your gig.

Later (much later...) on in life, tell her the whole story. To me, it's love, caring & other sentimental things.

But don't tell her the part where "Actually, we were very, very drunk"...
