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.)
