My 2ยข. It's crazy how many good, cheap guitars there are out there. All computer cut, laminate body and top, assembled in china or similar for American branding. I saw one at Ollie's on Wickham for $39.95 today. Sheesh. Can't recommend it but there are a ton of decent ones in the $200 range.Anyway, get a small body acoustic so you can sit on the couch in the back room and play. No complications. Just learn a handful of cowboy chords and play what you like. After a year or so, upgrade. But keep your first one for camping trips etc.

Example here. I bought a 3/4 scale a few years ago for a travel guitar. If it gets stolen or whatever, no big $$ lost. I play it often and it sounds fine.https://orangewoodguitars.com/...QwiEAAYASAAEgJtJvD_BwE

There is no substitute for some scrubby little magic acoustic. Any respectable surf shop has at least one.
I like maple guitars. Guild had a 2nd tier model called Madeira. Some hippie from Martinique had one for 250$ I show up, say hello, buy a beer. okay,$100. It has holes in it, has survived some turbulent times and sounds fucking incredible ------------------------- spindrift |

Tom would be at Danny's playing Danny's Martins. Tom loved the '37/'38 D18 and D28. The beer was cold and, , , , , when it would 'get to the point', , , , , I rolled another joint.
When Tom told me about being in 'Mudcrutch', , , , , I thought he said 'Mudcrotch'!!! ------------------------- Dora Hates You |
