Waht are some good brands of guitars(acoustic, not electric) and the price range?

Question

i am planning to learn guitar again in the summer since i stopped for almost six years (yeah i was 10 =[). so i wanna know some brands that have good guitars, like sound quality, and comfortable to use. i dont want it to be too expensive, under 350 would be okay. and also, would learning guitar at 16 be harder, or even difficult?

thank you for your time

Answer 1

A good acoustic is Takamine. This is a well made, beautiful sounding guitar. The actionis very low and the maintenance is nil.By that, I mean that once itis factory set, it stays set and in tune and hardly ever have to touch it.

The guitar sells for $200-250 and has a good re-sale value if you ever need to upgrade.

You can learn at 26. Do you like the instrument? Then get one and practice. You can also get good info on youtube for different tricks on your playing.

Answer 2

Many guitar makers produce very good "laminated-top" acoustics for under $250. Anything over $250. you should

expect a solid-top guitar.

I have found good products from Washburn, Alvarez, Yamaha,

Takamine (Jasmine), that are well put-together at reasonable

prices. I am only mentioned the ones that I have had personal

experience in playing. I am sure there are others in that price

range that can meet playability standards.

You should try several before you decide. It is what feels good

to YOU that is important.

As for your age, I wish I was 16 when I started!

It should not be difficult is you have the desire and discipline

to practice at least 30 minutes every day.

Answer 3

Fender Strat's are electrics, don't go for that.

If you want a good, cheap acoustic go for a Yamaha Gig Maker Deluxe.  It's got a pretty good sound, and is about $200-$250.

Answer 4

Hey man for $350 a Fender Standard stratocaster hits the spot. Strats are pretty versatile and can suit most needs except for some heavy metal. I don't think it would be to difficult, if anything it would help you keep focused on the instrument.

Answer 5

Washburn.

REALLYY nice guitars.

I don't what price they start at but I know they can get up to $800 easily for acoustic.

-good luck
