Which acoustic guitar
Discussion
If you had £500 which acoustic guitar would go put on a list to try out? Our local shop tends to push crafters and my wife has one of their cheap ones and it's ok but are there better options to try out?
I don't know very much about acoustics so don't really know how to narrow it down at all. What sort of features would I be looking at that make a difference such as in the construction and materials?
Would I be better served hanging on to the £500 and saving more to go to the next level?
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

i understand that there are many makers of quality acoustic guitars, but martin for me are like rolex. you cant believe the quality you get for the price.

Aha! The good old Martin formica guitar. I had a DXM for a few years, and I have to say it was fine, certainly nice to play, with a good tone. The only real disadvantage with them is that they are so quiet - but then for a home guitar this can be a positive advantage.come on it was the only real answer

Then one day I happened to stroll into my local high-end guitar shop to pick up a new set of strings. The owner persuaded me to try a Patrick James Eggle Saluda, "Just to see what they are like". Needless to say, I was hooked, and just had to have one. Utterly gorgeous.
