shaunpauls7 131 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Looking to get myself an acoustic guitar but not to sure what to go for. I am a beginner but know my cords and can play simple 3 cord songs. I am not looking for some cheap beginners package something around £200 weather it be second hand or not. So could anyone recommend anything? atb shaun Quote Link to post Share on other sites

crowhill 6 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Epiphone are a decent guitar for the price,...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the fezz 44 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 they where selling them in tescos mate £40 , might be worth a look in your nearest tescos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andyfr1968 772 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 As above, Epiphone do some nice guitars for the money. Yamaha are well worth a look too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
undisputed 1,664 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) Where you from mate? As said epiphone and yamaha have reasonably priced acoustics from around £50 some bargains to be had in cash converters....I picked up a nice epi in Elgin last week £50 well pleased with it Edited November 11, 2011 by undisputed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 26,438 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 I've got a Yamaha apx-5a semi acoustic, really nice guitar. It's small bodied and has decent action ( some acoustics can leave your wrist killing after 10 mins). It was a bit more than you want to spend new but I reckon you'd fnd one second hand around that price. The one thing I'd say is go and play a few in your local music shop see what type you like and you can make a choice from there ( you don't have to buy but you'll know what you like and maybe find a £400 guitar for £200 second hand) Good luck with your choice mate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Swampy 147 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Its a bit like asking what kind of gun you should get...Whatever works for you it is within certain parameters only as good as the bloke/lass behind it. Steel strings? Nylon? pick ups? tuners? all sorts.....For £200 you should be able to get a really good quality 2nd hand job Epiphone as mentioned are OK as are most of the japanese numbers coming out. If you want high end stuff I reckon if you looked hard enough you might get a Martin for your money. Guitars take years to "weather" in so don't get put off by 2nd hand and dazzled by brand new, it all depends on the timber. Not had one but have heard that Tanglewood are good value. Good luck Swampy Strummingning Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 3,048 Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 IMO By far the best sounding acoustic in the low budget price band is Yamaha they are very good, excellent neck also Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shaunpauls7 131 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) Going to try a couple of guitar shops in the city centre in a few weeks so i can have a choice of what i feel comfortable with.Thanks for the help lads will have a look around and let you know how i get on. atb shaun Edited November 12, 2011 by shaunpauls7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
