Hi !
Pretty sure I'm too early with this.. Hardly ever played acoustic guitars, but decided to get one. Checked out the closest dealers website and came across this magnificent looking guitar http://www.fender.com/products//search.php?partno=0960290021

I'm actually on my way there right now, but I'm not sure they have this one in the store. There are no reviews at all anywhere as far as I have seen and searched, logically as it's amost brand new.
Just maybe some of you guys have played it?
Don't even know if jumbo is for me, look awesome but perhaps not smooth. Will try other jumbos if they don't have it to make sure it's smth for me. I only do finger picking btw.

The problem is that if I order it from them I'll have to buy it, no matter I like it or not. Would really need to know how it plays feels and sounds. Can't take my eyes of it, but that's not all.

Which one is your own favourite Fender acoustic, if there is one?

If you're buying online,It's not a very good idea.the best option for you to do is go to a local store nearby and check out the acoustic models and shapes by yourself(from dreadnought,spanish,jumbo,auditorium, etc.) you could also try if guitars with no cutaway suits you.you should consider also the action.IMO looks are the least important bit.

goodluck on your purchase :lol:

(I'm sorry I cannot speak about the quality of that guitar because it just hit the shelves)
