Answer 1

I'm going to tell you up front, there is no such thing as a good guitar that is about $200. I have played every ranged price of guitars from $10 guitars to $10,000 guitars, so I would know. A good guitar will run you about a thousand. But the closest brand I have played that will make such a guitar at a low price would be Epiphone. So far, everything I have played on an Epiphone is just outstanding, even though they are made in Korea I believe, they are still good. I own a custom Epiphone Black Beauty VOS, and it's very good, although I like the Gibson version better. A good model would an AJ-100. It's acoustic electric, but that's a good thing. It will give you a better range with the guitar, so need to fret.

I don't like Boomer Wisdom's comparison, it makes no sense. My comparison is "A guitar is like a gun, You can have the best guitar ever, but you won't be able to use it if you don't know what you are doing"

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

You need one that fits your fingers, and has a nice "resonating" ring to it. You need to try them out --buying by "brand" doesn't work. I have found amazing guitars by Yamaha and Seagull that were very inexpensive but "sang" well and had good action.

Try before you buy. Guitars are like dogs: you need to find one with which you have an instant rapport.

Happy hunting.
