jahrule Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Can anyone recommend a decent acoustic guitar to start with?I'm an absolute beginner.Or does anybody have a decent acoustic guitar they want to sell me?As a novice, I obviously dont want to spend too much on something that I might just be rubbish at. On the other hand, I suspect if I bought one from Argos, it would be cr@p.Pls leave a message if you can recommend something or want to get rid of an old one.

ghost Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Think it's the luck of the draw with shops like Argos - especially as you can't try before you buy. Mind you, they have that 16-day return policy so you could return a guitar that wasn't suitable. Maybe worth a try?I've got a Yamaha F-310 and although the action is a bit high on mine, I know other folk who have it perfectly set up and they love it. I get calouses whenever I play, but I still wouldn't swap it for anything - got a great bassy sound too, even with light strings.http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data4/Yamaha/F-310-01.html gives more details and a few reviews.Cost wise, they're around 100 with bag, strap, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

che Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 It is indeed an F-310And it's pretty much as new.I bought it when my sister kept stealing my guitar, for her to learn on. But she lost interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
