Answer 1

musicainsfriend.com or check ebay

you could probably find a deal on one or the other.

Answer 2

Ibanez Talman series. I had a friend in college that started guitar and he got one of these. very nice for the money. and it's acoustic electric. the body is a little smaller than average, so it'd be perfect for a small 13ish kid-o like yourself. price ranges from like $199-$269

d**n... most of the people than answered after me totally missed your question. you're looking for an acoustic and they give you electric guitar ideas...

Answer 3

The most commonly accepted method of choosing a low cost electric guitar is to find an instrument with good quality wood, and at least reasonable workmanship. Guitar manufacturers tend to cut corners with cheaper guitars, by using cheaper pick-ups, and hardware, but these are all upgradeable parts. The following are some of the better low cost electric guitars available.

1. Squier Fat Stratocaster

Squier Strat

This are one of several Squier models available that offer a pretty good product for a reasonably low price. The pick-ups and hardware are sometimes suspect, and the workmanship varies from instrument to instrument, but for the price, these are a very good beginner guitar choice. The look of the instrument is appealling - Squier Fat Strats are similar in appearance to the much more expensive Fender Stratocasters.

2. Epiphone G-310 SG

Epiphone SG

Modelled after the much more expensive Gibson SG guitars, the Epiphone SG G310 keeps it's cost low by using cheaper hardware and lower quality humbucking pick-ups. The G-310 features an alder body, a mahogany neck, and a dot-inlayed rosewood fingerboard. The buzz on this guitar is it's a very good value for the money.

3. Yamaha PAC012DLX Pacifica Series HSS Deluxe

Here's another guitar many people feel is a great value. This Pacifica features an agathis body, maple neck, and rosewood fretboard, with two single coil pick-ups, and one humbucker. The consensus is the guitar is reasonably well made, and the quality of the wood tends to be high. Those who go on to become serious guitarists might want to consider upgrading the electronics of the Pacifica HSS.

4. Squier Affinity Series Telecaster

Guitarists like Keith Richards, Steve Cropper, Albert Lee, and Danny Gatton favor the look and sound of the Telecaster. If you're a fan of any of those guitarists, this beginner guitar may be for you. The Affinity Telecaster features an alder body, with a maple neck and fretboard.

5. Epiphone Les Paul Special II

The Les Paul is perhaps the most famous guitar in rock and roll. Epiphone has done a good job of visually re-creating the Les Paul in this lower-cost guitar marketed towards beginners. The Special II features a laminated alder/maple body, a magogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, and two open-coil humbucking pick-ups.

Answer 4

You can't just go around asking people on the internet, go to a guitar store, like ummm..., guitar center!!! The people who work the almost live for guitars, Just go and ask them. That would really be the best thing to do. You don't have to buy it there if you can find a better deal. when i got my guitar i was expecting something completly different the what i had intended (warlock) because of how much better it was for the same price.(epiphone les paul custom)

Answer 5

the guitar you want is a Takimine Jasmine

best!! good, cheap, not colorful but pretty.

Answer 6

You should get a Les Paul acoustic. Maybe an electric acoustic rather than regular would work better for you. I tried this and the sound was a lot better. :)

Answer 7

Mary I would start looking in your area by looking in the phone book under guitar.

I know in my area there is a guitar consignment shop where people who are hard up sell their guitars and you might be able to find a guitar that is good for less money that way.

I would not buy an instrument from a website, I personally would want to be able to strum it and hear the tone before buying. I have found very good guitars at consignment shops before.
