loss of quality with an acoustic electric guitar?




kevin p


It's time for a new guitar, I think the acoustic electrics are really cool and i'd kind of like to get one. But i'm wondering if it loses any quality on the acoustic side because it's more expensive. The one i'm looking at is a Martin 000CX1 and it's $675. I would imagine that a $675 acoustic guitar would be pretty decent, but with the electric components wouldn't that kind of jack up the price making it so less quality is spent on the acoustic side? Any info would be appreciated, thanks.


Answer
Of course the addition of the pick up is going to jack up the price,they cost money and to match the quality sound of a Martin you'll want a high quality pick up.But that being said,if you buy a high quality pick up it should match the natural quality acoustic sound no problem at all. They sound exactly the same if you want it too.Laters.

What is a good quality acoustic electric guitar?

lately ive been wanting to learn how to play guitar. when my sister comes to visit she brings hers, but that is rarely, and she wont let me borrow it. so that is my only chance to practice. i just wanted to know of some good sounding acoustic electric guitars.


Answer
You'd have to go to a store and try some for yourself. Im a martin fan and I love the martin gpcpa4 but thats probably too expensive for someone learning. Good quality electric acoustics are expensive.
Some cheaper brands to check out for electric acoustic:
Epiphone
Takamine
These will be more expensive than non electric acoustics because you'll need an amp and headphones (so you don't piss anyone off) Its up to you what you learn with but I would get a non electric. Lot more choice and cheaper. If you decide not to get electric here's some more brands and models worth checking.
Yamaha fg700s
Seagull s6 slim
Yamaha fg720s
When you get good then let the neighbourhood hear you.
