Re: Guitar Help COntinued

Anne,

All of these were acoustics, as after talking with two instructors and weighing the pros and cons of starting with each, I have decided to start with the acoustic, and deal with the pain. *Smiles*

Thanks for the input! We will be going back up to Rent one soon. I may rent a couple and take a couple of lessons and see which one I feel more comfortable with before actually buying one. I am trying to be sensible here, and not jump in too fast.

I will take a more serious look at the S&P though. And there is one shop we missed that carried the Seagulls, I want to go there and take a look before doing anything.

Blessings,
Rhainy
