Cbb8587	beginner guitars		Lead	[-]
Posts: 1222 08/24/2007 1:22 AM	Tags : None So now that all my summer pay checks have come in, I have decided to finally do what I've planned on doing for years and buy a guitar and try to learn how to play. I plan on getting an acoustic but I was wondering what I should get for a first one. What should I look for/ what am I looking at for prices. I'm really not looking for anything amazing because whether it's a good guitar or not, the music I will be playing will be pretty shitty. Any advice would be appreciated. Any ideas on the Fender Starcaster? Doesnt look bad and comes with a starter kit TIA Last Edited By: Cbb8587 08/24/2007 1:46 AM. Edited 1 time.

How much are you looking to spend? EDIT: by the way, I still own and play frequently my first guitar...I bought it five years ago for about $220...it's proved to be very good...it has good sound quality for a cheaper guitar...I wound up buying a Yamaha acoustic starter kit...I think the guitar is called the F-310P...I don't know if they still make it, but it's a good guitar with good quality and it's also relatively light... -- Andrew BOOMER SOONER!!

Any GOOD guitar store will set up their acoustic guitars, including the beginners (this means that the neck should have no bow in it, the string action is at a playable level, and there should be no string buzz when you fret any of the strings). I would recommend Yamaha and/or Fender, but even guitar companies like Ventura put out decent beginning guitars. Also check the local shops for used guitars in your price range. Most important thing is that you like the tone of the guitar.

Many guitar stores don't take in used guitars that have problems, b/c they know they just won't sell. So buying used from a reputable store really isn't risky.
