Fender's DG25S - A Lovely Little Acoustic

Advantages: Well balanced tone,
Disadvantages: Prone to scratches

I bought my Fender DG25S several years ago when visiting my brother up in Newcastle. I'd been looking to buy an acoustic guitar for some time and my brother took me to his local music shop where he was friends with the manager. On the first day we got there a little late and the shop was closing, so I only had a chance to try a couple of guitars. In particular, a blonde Gibson (think John Lennon-style) really stood out for me and I thought I'd found ...
...there was a very nice Fender going on special offer. My initial reaction was that Fender are not renowned for the quality of their acoustics and thought it couldn't possibly compare to the Gibson I'd seen the day before. I picked up the Gibson and had made my decision to buy it when I thought I should at least give the Fender a chance - after all, my brother's friend was a guitarist himself and knew his stuff, so what was the harm in trying? Having ...

Review of Fender DG-16-12 Acoustic Guitar

Classy Chords

Advantages: Light, Beutiful, pretty cheap, world known brand
Disadvantages: none

...failed and sold me his fender acoustic for just £50. He was very foolsih and i was really lucky. This guitar is so nice to play and it sounds really good with some nice martin brass stings strung on. I'm not the greatest guitarist in the world but this guitar makes every chord sound good. I have written all my songs on this guitar and one day if i'm famous it might be worth more than Bill Gates. My mate Paul who must be one of the best guitarists ...
...of it aswell. The guitar looks really nice and blends in well with my other guitars. The guitar is pretty light. Its not super light like some cheap guitars you'd buy from argos though. This is a real guitar for soem real chord players. If you want to learn guitar invest in a nice acoustic. After you have mastered the chord playing stage move onto the electrics. This guitar will improve your general play and sound. ...

Review of Fender DG-16 Acoustic Guitar

Robust and reliable - simple yet classy!

Advantages: Very durable; classy design; great value for money
Disadvantages: Simple look; basic technology

...& Co., Carter and Yamaha. Fender is, of course, possibly the best known guitar make of all but I was not sure if their fame for making innovative electric models such as the Stratocaster and Telecaster would translate into a good acoustic. Still, at £180 in my local shop, the Fender DG-11 was almost half the price of the Martin & Co.'s I had seen in the same shop and elsewhere. This mostly had to do with the fact that these particular Martin & Co.'s ...
...stylish looking instrument. The silver Fender logo on the headstock is just the cherry on the cake. The guitar itself has a great feel to it - light, and not too wide, with a slim and elegant fret board. The strings have little space in between them which in some cases makes reaching or muting desired notes much easier than with some other steel-strings I have seen (and, of course, classical guitars). However, for a beginner who is just learning ...
