Fender DG5 acoustic guitar Dreadnought shape, made in China. Buy new 150. The data sheet says:
Non-solid wood guitar: Spruce top, bottom, and handle wicker covers Nato, Rosewood (although doubts j'mets the above) Bridge: Rosewood (possible).
Channel 20 boxes: standard freight, taken up by points embedded in the key.
Mcaniques chrome gears.
The use of solid wood with him is certainly not honor. The skeptical view of the bottom leaves (veins and knots all over).

Information about the finish: Fintion Ultra cheap, a little risky: the varnish goes down after one or two months of normal use / intensive rvlant the wood is s rately not the rosewood aperoit is a kind of wooden crate...…

Information about the finish: Fintion Ultra cheap, a little risky: the varnish goes down after one or two months of normal use / intensive rvlant the wood is s rately not the rosewood aperoit is a kind of wooden crate with soft fibers underneath.

UTILIZATION

The handle is enjoyable, a little too late I got.
15 boxes non-cash, for the following boxes, if you want, we can!
The guitar is a bit heavy, but nothing mchant either.
To get a good sound, change the strings! Taking a ride a little more light has the added benefit of ringing properly.

SOUNDS

A guitar for versatility, both in rhythm than fingerpicking. However the sound is not in gnial picking.
A trend fcheuse a curl, a little less with a capo. No possibility of rglage because of the lack of truss-rod.
It sounds even when, better than Jim Harley. But even when we speak of Fender, l!

Important: change the original string, not terrible.

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar was my Premire folk, APRS several classics of much better quality ... The dpaysement was at the rendezvous.
Looking back, I do not Rasht this guitar, but I headed to a plutt Cort Earth 100, much better quality and finish (table mass), for the price.
That was my big mistake of beginners m'tre Fi to the prestige of the brand. That question their srieux they leave out the guitars in this way, the rank of a Stagg or Harley Benton lucky ...

I put my average. The trs is just okay.

For a detailed description see previous opinion.
mine is natural finish (best to my taste than the sunburst)
his back is super nice (contact me for photos if you're interested)
But mine is different from that in the opinion precedent.Il are:
-A truss-rod
Wood-better
Varnish-which take

UTILIZATION

Channel end super nice
So no cutaway access to acute rather difficult (but you get there !!!!!)
very pleasant guitar
we need to change the strings for a smaller Tirand

SOUNDS

I play mostly pop rock of the 60s but today deu rock
super sound
harmonics out effortlessly
the sound is excellent (normal when it comes to fender)
It is suitable for any style of music

OVERALL OPINION

I jou with this guitar for 2 years and I have t trs glad I bought it really cheap (100euros MODEL expo)
I compared with other models that friends had bought in the same price range (yamaha, ibanez ,...) and ultimately the fender sound was the friendliest.
it's a really nice guitar especially as a c'tait MODEL handed I did fiddle left-handed by a luthier for about 25euros.
but I just bought a Cort Earth 100 LH I pay 200 euros to 75 euros ... more cort offers a solid spruce top makes all the diffrence ... I jou with one and then another, and the fender is a cot toy figure of the cort.

but I RPET the fender has overwhelmed me for two years and I recommended to beginners who want without breaking the bank.
