Who has some??



I need advice, opinions, whatever...


I want to spend about 300, 350 bucks, not much, but enough...


everyone i saw in that price range seem ok, but dont quite make it...

and everyone i read reviews of, has a lot of good reviews, and some bad, but the good ones sound "Dabson-like", and the bad ones are TERRIBLE...

Do you have an option to go to a store and try them out?

Searching for a good guitar is like buying underware... you have to try on a few pairs before you decide.

Anything really, i want a "quiet" guitar, i want the accoustic sound, i wanna play it on the couch watching tv, but i wanna be able to record it too...

I want to get back to studying some too, and its great... i lost track of a guy that used to teach me that had one i loved, never knew make or model :(

My advice would be to play it before you buy.

Play up and down the neck of the guitar to make sure it sounds well in all areas. I have come across guitars that are in tune when playing at the bottom of the neck but as you go up the strings start sounding out of tune, ect...

Basically what Ambi said, play several until you get a good feel for a particular one.

I thought you already had a guitar? Grabbing a new one, or just getting an extra one?

:stupid:

If price wasn't an issue, I'd say get an Ovation, but price is an issue, so I'm going to go sit in that corner over there.
