Perfection!
I ordered this for my husband for Christmas, and he LOVES it! The sound is perfect, and it can easily be hooked up to an amp. He is ecstatic, and so am I.

Great guitar
This is a great sounding guitar. I suggest you play it for a couple months and really get to enjoy it. Then, cut those strings off, and put some quality strings on it. Great guitar

I should have bought it in person.
I bought this because I have an addiction, but at least it's not drugs.I found it in the sale and so after some thinking, I bought it. It came on time and in its original packaging. I saw a lot of people complain in the comments that it came with scratches on the finish, and mine was no exception. However, I purchased it in the middle of winter, not very smart on my end. It was moved out of a controlled warehouse into the cold and then left on my porch in the wind, It's just a buyer error. The tuner is a little off, and not exactly spot on. the preamp settings work great. I do recommend that you put new strings on it when you can.

Unbeatable in this Price Range
I've played Taylor's for 30 years as my primary acoustic guitars. And I own 5 different models 615GA down. I also own Martin, Gibson and Epiphone acoustics as well as Yamaha and Blue Ridge. 3 Fender American Strats, 2 Fender American Tele's, a Gibson Les Paul, a PRS 10 Top, Gibson SG, so my point in listing some of my guitars is this, I own a lot. I play a lot. The Fender Newporter is not only gorgeous to look at, it sounds incredible. Whether played through an amp or just sitting and strumming in your chair. The neck is fast and smooth and plays really well. There is no fret buzz at all. It sounds amazing. The setup was perfect right out of the box. All it needed was tuning up about half a step. Comparing it with some of the guitars I mentioned it really holds its own quite well. And unless you are comparing it with a $2000.00 300 series Taylor or above, this guitar holds it's own with the Taylor GS, the 100 or 200 series guitar. And is actually easier to play and sounds better. And compared to them price wise, this is by far the best deal. The size of the guitar is also a winner, as it is about the size of the Taylor 314 Grand Concert. Which is smaller in size than the GA, or grand Auditorium. Plugged into an amp the guitar really shines. The onboard electronics allow you to shape the sound to adjust the highs lows and mids. Plus the onboard tuner is very accurate. I would recommend this guitar to anyone. A beginner or pro. If there was one thing to say about this guitar I didn't like it would be the inline tuners typically used on older or cheaper model guitars. But they work well and keep the guitar in tune. Unfortunately the Left Handed only come in Black or Metallic Red for us left handers, that I've found. But for $429.00 they are worth every penny. Spend another 100 bucks and get a good case. Well done Fender. Although these are part of the California Series of guitars, they are made in Indonesia. But don't let that scare you off. Great guitar. And I will add a thank you to Amazon for carrying these left handed as well. Great job in getting it here. Packed and overpacked.

Amazing, I love it.
I bought this guitar in January of this year, I believe. I've been playing it nearly every day since I bought it, so it's been about 2 months. I have to say, I absolutely love it. I have never owned an acoustic guitar or a guitar in general, but I absolutely LOVE this one. I paid a pretty penny for it and I have no regrets. Since it's dark colored, I can see some fingerprints on it, but it's nothing a rag can't fix. I'm someone who doesn't like country music and likes lot of Japanese Pop Rock, some indie music, stuff like that. I like more modern things. That being said, that also goes for what color guitars I like and look out for. I don't like the classic guitar look. I don't like the tan, I don't like any orange, I don't like the worn-out look. However, these guitars really caught my eye. I was originally going to buy the silverish one, as I'd had the guitar in my cart for a long time and had decided upon it. But at the very last second as I was about to buy it, the dark guitar caught my eye. So I read reviews and after realizing that this one was probably the better choice, I bought it. So far, I have zero regrets. It sounds amazing, good quality control, showed up at my doorstep in great condition. My only complaint with Fender is that it says on the box exactly what it is. The Fender logo was pasted on it. So if, say, someone wanted to steal it, it would probably be an easy feat. I would just make sure to get it delivered somewhere inconspicuous. Inside your garage or house would be ideal. On Fender's part, they could avoid this hassle altogether by removing their logos from the box. But, all in all, thanks for the guitar! It's very sturdy, and my arm doesn't get tired at all after playing it for about 3 hours every day. I love this guitar. (Side note that I'm adding in at the last second, yes it has a built-in preamp and tuner. Mine came with a battery, at the bottom of the guitar, which was very convenient for tuning. I've never used an acoustic amp, so I can't speak on how it sounds with the preamp, but I can say that the buttons are very high quality, almost velvety.)

Llegó en perfectas condiciones y antes de lo previsto
La guitarra llegó en excelentes condiciones. Muy bien empacada y días antes de lo previsto.Mi único inconveniente es que no estaba “sellada” de fábrica. Le faltaba una protección de papel que lleva a través de las cuerdas y las cuerdas estaban usadas. Lo que me hace pensar que era la que tenían de exhibición.Sin embargo todo estaba en perfectas condiciones.

The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing...
My Fender Newporter Champagne arrived to me in Canada Very quickly and in perfect condition! Out of the box it was an immediate dream to play and was surprisingly still very close to being fully in tune. The setup, or lack thereof, was also surprisingly good and I'm confident that most players will be happy with it without needing much for set up at all aside from style based or personal preferences. The action is lower than average but not the lowest and you won't find yourself with sore hands or fingers, espevially if your just learning. Factory strings are clean decent and won't need an immediate change. Built in tuner and preamp/pickup work break and this guitar shines when plugged in. The raw acoustic tone is as expected for a mid size and narrow acoustic. You won't be sounding like a Martin Dreadnaught but this guitar is made to be played and you can feel it the minute it's in your hands. You can easily compliment any full size acoustic if you're playing the proper style and if you like to play hard, this guitar will sing for any great acoustic rock, alternative, blues and even jazz styles. Also very comfortable for finger picking but again, best done solo as it will be a quiter guitar unless you plug it in and then you have a whole other reason to smile because for stage or recording, this guitar will quickly become the most fun and comfortable acoustic in your arsenault without breaking the bank!I bought this for my wife so she had a more comfortable guitar to learn on and perform with but I have not been able to keep my hands off of it, it's just a really fun guitar to play and with my 30 years experience, my preferance for bigger boomy acoustics and a collection of various high end models, I was absolutely taken back by this little beast of a guitar. So now I'm buying one for myself also and considering other higher Fender models also. I highly recommend the Fender Newporter and don't make the mistake of dismissing other similar models either if this is what fender has been up to lately!

Sehr gute Gitarre
Ich bin begeistert. Optik sollte bei einem Instrument eigentlich keine so wichtige Rille spielen. Wenn man aber eine Gitarre wie diese in Händen hält, darf sie auch gerne blau metallic sein oder welche Farbe auch immer haben. Vom ersten Griff, vom ersten Ton an, war ich in die Gitarre schockverliebt. Ich spiele seit vielen Jahren und hatte wirklich schon so einige Gitarren in der Hand, aber diese Fender ist für mich etwas besonderes. Der schmale Hals macht das Spielen fast so komfortabel wie auf einer e Gitarre. Der Sound ist einfach schön. Nicht zu viele Bässe, nicht zu viele Höhen und trotzdem crisp. Ganz toll. Für mich, perfekt ausgewogen Die Verarbeitung ist tadellos. Ich freue mich schon auf den ersten Gig mit ihr, denn auch der Tonabnehmer liefert einen ausgewogenen Klang, ohne das nervige Pritzeln. So viel Gitarre, für verhältnismäßig wenig Geld, wow. Ich möchte jetzt noch eine Lanze für alle brechen, die sich mit Gitarren nicht so gut auskennen. Es ist vollkommen normal, dass auf einer Gitarre die Saiten gewechselt werden. Saiten sind normaler Verschleiß.
