Anyone have any time with this guy? I played the butterscotch one at a local shop and enjoyed it and now pulled the trigger at musicians friend on the sunburst one. Got it for 230$, not bad for this pretty little guitar!

  • wow, she's pretty. i have never seen one of those. i love the feel of those smaller parlor style bodies. $230 is a steal for a fender signature model. nice find :)

  • I have no experience with the model, but have never really been impressed with anything from the Fender Acoustic world. I have however heard and played the Art and Lutherie Parlor guitar, and was impressed with it.

    Yeah. Fender acoustics don't have the best rep but for that price and the reviews I've read I'll take the chance.

    like with the mexican strats, every once in awhile you strike gold in a cheep guitar. hopefully that happens in this case :D

    Well said...I hunted down and scored a real sweet 98 MIM Strat, better sounding pickups than earlier ones in the 90s and plays/looks great(and was a great price).
