Overview

A starter guitarist who wants amplification gets a laminate cutaway body with a spruce top and a slim C-shape neck. Onboard Fender electronics provide output for live amplification, recording and effects, and a digital tuner is built in.

A walnut fingerboard and bridge, sealed gear tuners and a satin finish round out the build, and the tilt-back headstock gives even string feel. The limitation is conflicting wood data, with sapele in the description and basswood in the specs.

Who it's for

New players who want a comfortable cutaway and built-in tuning help, with a trial of lessons. Players after all-wood construction, or a documented jack type, should look elsewhere.

Performance notes

The electronics deliver high-quality output for amplification and recording, and the tuner is built in. A straight string pull from the nut helps tuning machine performance, and the tilt-back design gives even string feel.
