Get that big, chimey 12-string tone with the Fender CD-140SCE. This intelligently designed acoustic features a solid spruce top and ovangkol back and sides for full midrange and high-end tone with a solid low end ? that classic 12-string blend that so many artists have fallen for over the decades. A gorgeous mahogany neck with walnut fingerboard is incredibly playable and responsive. And when you are ready to plug in, Fishman Presys electronics are onboard to deliver stellar amplified acoustic tone.





Stellar amplified tone





The Fishman Presys pickup system in the CD-140SCE gives you plenty of tone-shaping options. There are bass, treble, and volume controls so you can dial in your ideal sound. A notch filter helps eliminate the possibility of feedback while playing live, and a brilliance control helps you cut through the mix. In addition, the phase control helps solve phase problems when recording the Presys output and a microphone at the same time. And a built-in tuner ensures you stay in tune while onstage or at home ? a feature we really appreciate here at Sweetwater.
