Kinda? Someone can correct/add on to this but:

FA = Fender Alternative series (“beginner” series/line) -laminate guitars of pressed fiber

CD = Classic Design series - spruce tops, mahogany body

PD = Paramount series -solid mahogany wood top and body

The “E” At the end means they’re electric (likely Fishman pickups)

Dreadnought will be the body shape. This is the big American acoustic shape with deep low end.

Not sure what the individual numbers mean.

S means solid i think so for example SCE would mean solid cutaway electric

This honestly makes a lot of sense. 🤔

I always thought Ibanez was the worst for this. "What guitar would sound good on this track? I know - the SEW761CW! Or, if not, maybe a AZS2200F?"
