Neither Fender CC -60S nor Fender FA-115 were recommended by experts this month

On 9 Apr 2024 (10 days ago) we went through 96 Acoustic Guitar expert endorsements , however neither Fender CC -60S nor Fender FA-115 were included in any of those recommendations. Since neither Acoustic Guitar received a single endorsement, as far as expert recommendations go, it's technically a tie. We do, however, recommend taking a look at Yamaha FG800 or other critically acclaimed Acoustic Guitars of this month.

For reference, Yamaha FG800 received 6 endorsements this month, from Music Critic (7 Jan 2023), Music Radar (22 Feb 2024) GuitarPlayer (6 Apr 2023) and 3 others.
