Curator Questions
Curated by Jade
Assessment:
A modern, entry-level Fender dreadnought made in Indonesia. The interior label clearly identifies the model as CD-100 LH NAT-DS-V2 with serial IPS1401747, consistent with mid-2010s production. These are durable student/utility instruments with laminated construction; they have modest collectible value but are reliable players. Left-handed examples are less common and may sell a bit stronger than right-handed equivalents. A word about fakes.. while high-end vintage Fenders are more often counterfeited than entry-level acoustics, remain cautious: verify the headstock decal, truss-rod access, serial consistency with Fender support, and general build/finish quality before purchase.
Individual Images:
- Single image looking through the soundhole. Visible: oval cream/black-bordered paper label reading “Fender Acoustics.” Full printed text includes model “CD-100 LH NAT-DS-V2
- ” serial “IPS1401747
- ” and “Manufactured in Indonesia.” Multi-ring rosette around soundhole with two dark rings; natural finish top; light internal X-bracing visible; steel strings in foreground slightly out of focus. No exterior condition details (headstock
- bridge
- frets
- sides/back) are shown.
Provenance:
No provenance documents provided.
Condition:
Condition undetermined (insufficient detail images)
Identification Score: 98%
The interior soundhole label explicitly states “Fender Acoustics, Model: CD-100 LH NAT-DS-V2” with serial number; dreadnought body and natural finish match this model line.
Authenticity Score: 85%
Label and serial formatting appear consistent with known Fender Indonesian production. However, without exterior views (headstock logo, neck heel, tuners) and full construction details, a small chance of parts substitution or relabeling remains.
Image Memory Note
Object: Left-handed Fender dreadnought acoustic guitar viewed through the soundhole. Natural finish top with multi-ring (two thin dark rings) rosette. Interior shows light-colored bracing crossing below the soundhole. The main focus is the oval paper label affixed to the back: cream background with thin double black border; top line reads “Fender” in script, “ACOUSTICS” below. Middle lines: “Model: CD-100 LH NAT-DS-V2.” Further lines: “Made in accordance to specifications of Fender Musical Instruments Corp U.S.A. Manufactured in Indonesia. Fender is a registered trademark of FMIC.” Bottom line: “S/N: IPS1401747.” Strings (six steel) run vertically out of focus. Wood grain of the back (inside) appears straight and light brown. No visible cracks, chips, or repairs are seen from this angle. No exterior details (headstock, bridge, pickguard, tuners) are visible.
