Hey I'm looking at buying a new acoustic guitar sometime in the future. I love electric Fenders but haven't had the chance to try many acoustics yet. Any suggestions for a really nice and good value acoustic Fender?

Sorry, although Fender is known for some of the best electric guitars and amps, they are not known for great acoustic guitars. Although they have some great value acoustic guitars, you may want to explore acoustics whith better playability and sound. Personaly, I find a great sounding, easy playing guitar more enjoyable to play than a guitar with high action, little sustain, and low volume. Thus, I'll play it more than a guitar I'll struggle to get a sound out of.

Taylor makes some great easy playing, good sounding acoustic guitars for $300 and up. Great for fingerpiking.

Nevertheless, try out the acoustic guitars to see if it feels and sounds good to you.

I recently got a Washburn D10SCE and love the solid top sound.. and came with case for $300 ...I recommend changing the cheap saddle with a TUSQ one. I had a CD 60 and gave it away..like this one much better

also Washburn has the WD series ..bone nut and saddle ..only doesnt come with the case..I haven't even had mine in the case since I got it though..this one is sweet
