General

There's just something about an instrument in black that makes it special. Add to that a satin finish and you have one good-looking guitar. Fender has expanded the CD-140SCE series with satin finishes on both the natural and black versions. The soft, subtle finish is a joy to behold, while the sound quality and playing comfort of the CD-140SCE are as good as ever. This dreadnought has a built-in Fishman preamp so that its bright tones are amplified as naturally as possible when you want to fill larger spaces with its sound by connecting it to an amplifier.

CD-140SCE Satin: solid construction

The black Fender CD-140SCE Satin has a cutaway on the body so that all of the 20 frets on the rosewood fretboard are easily accessible. High playing comfort is offered thanks to a scale length of 25.3 inches and a string nut width of 1.69 inches on the trusted C profile neck. The rosewood bridge is fitted with NuBone saddles from GraphTech that ensure tuning stability and good intonation. A solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides combine to give the Fender CD-140SCE a rich sound with sparkling high tones.

Fishman Presys preamp with tuner

Fender has fitted the CD-140SCE with the renowned Fishman Presys preamp. This compact and advanced Presys system has a volume control and a 3-band EQ for bass, middle and treble. It also has a body regulator included so that you can emphasize the mid range. Additionally, the preamp has an integrated tuner with a bright LED display so that you can easily tune your guitar. The Fishman preamp's clever design also means that you can change the battery easily when necessary.

The Fender CD-140 Now Available In a Satin Finish

Tuesday 13 October 2015 By Richard | Bax Music

The Fender CD-140S Natural and the CD-140SE in Natural and Black now also come in a matte satin finish, in addition to the existing high-gloss models. The satin finish really allows the beautiful wood grains to stand out and the sound produced is a little more open.
