Writing this review of the Fender CD-60SCE Dreadnought Electro-Acoustic Guitar nearly 3 months after purchasing it from Bajaao.
Delivery:
- I initially received a notification that the guitar would be dispatched a week after the purchase date, which gave me reason to worry. However, that was far from the case and I received the guitar just 2 days later.
- The delivery was in excellent order even though I didn't opt for the extra packaging. Kudos to the Bajaao team!
Guitar:
- I decided to go for the natural color (a change from my usual preference of black). This left me slightly disappointed as the guitar's color looked nothing like the picture and was more of a orangy color.
- Coming to the strings that came with the guitar, they were shrill sounding and appeared to already have rust spots.
- I changed the strings to Ernie Ball Extra Lights and now the guitar sounds great with a good warm tone. It plays well for both rhythm and lead and there was no need to change the action or make any further adjustments.
- The preamp and in-built tuner also work well, though I have yet to get around to buying a better quality amp.
Other:
- Bajaao gave me a very good deal on the guitar. The discount they offered was over the the pre existing highest discount at the time.
- An Allen key was provided, in case I need to make any changes to the action in the future.
- The purchase didn't include a gig bag. It would've been really good if an original Fender bag was provided with the guitar.
All in all, a good experience for my first time purchasing a guitar online.
