I am primarily a violinist and keyboardist but would like to learn acoustic guitar. In my experience, very cheap instruments are not worth buying as they are not setup properly for ease of play (action, in guitarist parlance) so the beginner gives up; at the same time, as I beginner I cannot rationalize buying a Gibson. So what I'm looking for is an acoustic-electric guitar that:
sounds decent
is not too frustrating to play
fits my $300-500 budget
what are some options to try?
my nearest superstore (WWBW) has these brands in that price range: Ibanez ; Alvarez ;Takamine ; Ovation ;Dean ;Washburn ; Fender ; Yamaha ; Gretsch
thanks,
Sathyan
PS If this has already been covered I'm sorry but "search" wasn't working.
