Q. I want to buy a cheap acoustic guitar so I can teach myself how to play, but I'm not sure if there will be a sound difference if I buy a $60 guitar instead of a $200 one. If there is, whats a good brand that will sound good, and be cheap?


Answer
A $200 guitar is still entry level and won't sound as good as a better instrument, although some are much better than others. In that price range you expect a guitar to be solidly built, comfortable to play, and to sound reasonably decent, not great. A $60 one won't even meet minimal standards of functionality, durability, or playability - don't even bother worrying about the sound. It's a complete waste of money.

Expect to spend at least $100 and preferably $150-300 for a guitar good enough to learn to play on. You should only buy from a music store, not from Ebay, Walmart, Best Buy, or similar sources of junk guitars.

Where can I buy a cheap acoustic guitar?

I'm trying to find a cheap acoustic guitar around 100-200 dollars, thats good quality and will last me a long time, until I can afford to buy a another better one.
Its for a beginner



Answer
Cheap guitars can be found anywhere. Finding an inexpensively-priced instrument of good quality is much more difficult.

Start visiting guitar websites to research good instruments in your price range then you will have a nice starting point to find a guitar that will suit your needs. Talk with other guitar players and ask their advice also. Most will have their favorite brand but you can learn much from their experiences with first guitars.
"Cheap" guitars are more difficult to play and don't hold their tune. These problems may sour your enthusiasm for learning to play.

I paid less than $200 for a lightly used Washburn D-12 acoustic/electric at Music-Go-Round. This is a nice entry level instrument and is a good player.
