DG-8S Acoustic Pack

Model : 0950801

We've made our top-selling DG8S Acoustic Pack even better by upgrading its full-sounding, easy-playing dreadnought guitar with even finer features. These include a slightly re-shaped pickguard and rosewood bridge that give a nod to the Fender acoustics of the 1970s, new 3mm dot markers that lend an elegant touch to the fretboard, and a simple-but-striking mother-of-pearl acrylic rosette.

Other features include a solid spruce top with scalloped and quartersawn "X" bracing for balanced tone, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck with 20-fret rosewood fretboard, neck and body binding, and Graphtech® Nubone™ nut and compensated bridge saddle. Pack includes everything needed to start playing, with gig bag, chromatic electronic tuner, strings, picks and strap and instructional DVD.

Couldn't ask for a better first guitar

Beginner Classic Rock Folk

My son bought this guitar for me for Christmas a few years ago knowing that I was interested in learning to play a guitar. I've just recently started taking lessons and this guitar is very good for a beginner like me. It's a very nice looking instrument and sounds great. I'd highly recommend this guitar for beginners in particular as it is easy to play and a great instrument for a reasonable price.
