Yea you can read everyone elses reveiws for this one- Everything is awsome!

Sound : 10
I play rock, alt, and singer/songwriter folk music (DMB, Vert Horrizons, Guster) and this guitar does it awsomely. I usualy play it through a fender acoustisonic Jr. Iinterstingly enough, I also can throw it into my mesa cab and play it with distortion and it sounds nice and full. No feed back. It sounds great acousticly, not quite as full as a traditional acoustic, but less scrapey and trangy then regular acoustics...peeerfect!

Action, Fit, & Finish : 9
Perfect setup, pickup is fine...there was a small divit in the finish, but too small to realy see and i don't mind that much

Reliability/Durability : 10
THis guitar seems to work for the giging and studio work I do. The only time it let me down was when it got stepped on, and can we realy blam our guitars for our dumb actions? Long story short (too late) the guitar got steped on and the top cracked a bit, but for being steped on by a 200lbs man, it held really well! I would defenatly gig w/out a backup...nothing can hurt this guitar!

I've been playing for about 6 years and I've had a ton of acoustics. Before this I had an ovation and the sound quality and the range in types of music i am able to play on this guitar is crazy. I compared it with the Epiphone Chet Atkins (dave matthews guitar copy) and for this money, this guitar blew it out of the water!!! I wish it were jsut a little larger as it looks silly on a big guy, but hey the sound makes up for everything, plus does size really matter;) !!!

99 Fender Acoustic Electric, Made in Korea. Mini-Jumbo Cutaway body, 20 frets, solid cedar top with slightly tinted natural finish. Under the saddle active fishman pick up, with on board preamp: EQ, Volume, and Contour. The tuners make me drool, some sort of Pearloid or something, very nice. No pickguard, and i had a stap button installed, the endpin is also where the input is.

Sound : 9
The body shape makes it sound a little bit fuller/deeper than my old acoustic. Unplugged, it sounds good. Plugged in, it does what it should: natural, just louder. If you put the treble or contour up all the way, it does sound like a piezo though. I play it through my Shure wireless, Fender Deluxe 112 plus, and a digitech RP-3. I really don't need a $500 dollar acoustic amp. I'll use it live w/ church and bands. Feedback isn't a problem unless you have the volume jacked up when you first plug it in

Action, Fit, & Finish : 10
Now, i normally don't find in-animate objects attractive, but this Bad Boy is soooo pre-tay. Set up fine, everything feels great for now. Once again, the tuning buttons are awesome. The ceder top is pretty and unique. Love the mini-jumbo body

Reliability/Durability : 10
Gotta respect the hardshell case

Fender's website is O.K. I wouldn't go through Fender though, i'd go to my local music store first.

Overall Rating : 10
I've been playing 3 years, and have a Fender Strat, Fender Deluxe 112 Plus, Digitech RP-3, and a Shure wireless. I'm a big fan of Fender gear, so this bad boy will last me a while i'm sure. I like everything about this guitar, especially for the price. I had my eye on it for a while, tried it out and decided to spring for it. I looked at some Deans, Epiphones, Ovations, Yamaha's, and other Fenders. I traded in my old acoustic to get one with a pickup/preamp. This guitar is as nice to play as it is to look at.

I made the store tweek it and that reduced fret noise but not 100%.
Nothing else was wrong everything else is great.
This is a real nice looking guitar The cedar top is beatiful.

Reliability/Durability : 8
This is a very light guitar, I don't think It could take a real beating. It also does not have a pickguard, I've only had it for a few months but we will see how it holds up over the years.
I always have an electric with me for back-up.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I have not dealt with fender but the guitar store was very friendly.

I have been playing for 14 years, I own all fender stuff-a strat, tele, deluxe amp, satellite amp and an epiphone Riviera.
I can honestly say I love this guitar , It is very comfortable to play and has a great sound. My friends and band mates really like it to and for only 400 bucks I think this is a great value for a quality guitar.
Nothing else in it's price range even comes close, I tried an Ibanez a Dean an epihone and other fenders all for under 500 bucks and this was the best of them.
I would replace it if I lost it, Or I might spend 1000 bucks and get a nice guild cutaway!!??

This beutiful guitar has a cedar neck mahogany back and side and rosewood fret board. 20 frets. The pickups are fishmen and sound crisper then the air on top of a giant mountain. It plays like a top line martin and feel prettier then a young school girl. I recomend this guitar for any folks who dig ANY stlye of music. It sound UNREAL in the studio and sounds great through effects...

Sound : 9
THe sound of this guitar is like no other. i usually play through a PA but it can go through any type of Acoustic amp . Preferable Trace Elliot or Fender acoustic Amp. It has a little feed back but it is expected with a hollow body acoustic. with the eq band and Fishmen pickups you can get any sound your heart desires.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 8
The Fender JG26 is a great guitar but one problem I have found is that if you move around as much as I do the wiring gets loose and youhear poping and buzzing in the output. It can easily be adjusted and happens very rarly. other then that it is such a great guitar.

KICK ASS GUITAR
