I've been playing acoustic guitar for a little over a year and have decided to get an electric guitar. I don't know much about them, but i do know i need it to be comfortable, with a good sound, that will last a few years. What guitar should i get?

Answer
My first electric guitar was an Ibanez and it's a nice guitar especially considering it was rather cheap.

Beautiful

I want to ask for an acoustic guitar for Christmas since I'm a broke college student, but it can't be too expensive. I basically know how to play, I learned on an electric actually.. but I'm not that great and want to get better and would rather do it on an acoustic! Any suggestions?

What is a good first guitar that won't cost a fortune, but will last a while without having to get a new one?

I am planning to learn guitar and need my own acoustic guitar - I don't want to pay a fortune, but i also have no idea what is a fortune is when talking about guitars. I would like any info you have on brands, price ranges vs quality, etc. Thanks!

I've been a subscriber to Guitar Player magazine since the mid 70's, and they always have hard hitting reviews of musical equipment.

In short, the Fender acoustics have always gotten good reviews.

Here's the thing, if you truely want a guitar to "last," you have to get one with a "solid top." Most low end cheaper acoustics will simply say something like.."spruce top." this is NOT a solid top. If the guitar has a solid top, believe me, they will emphasize this point.

Solid tops are preferable because they age better...improve in tone, and can literally be handed down for generations.

Of course, solid tops are more expensive, but not out of reach.

Here's a nice Fender acoustic with a solid top with the bonus of having a built in pickup, which you might consider...especially if you plan on doing some open mikes one day or performning in a band?

Explore the web site...there are many very nice guitars well under the 5 bill mark. Also, Guitar Center owns Musician's Friend, so they are basically the same store.
