[QUOTE="reutbing0, post: 1177744, member: 1588"] Well, what kind of music do you want to play ? A spanish guitar (with nylon strings) is easier on the fingers than a steelstring guitar and good for beginners. A steel string will be better for you if you want to play American Roots music, Blues and acoustic rock..also the way to go for most singer/songwriter type stuff. I've heard good things about the Lopez books but be aware that while these books will give you a good theory/technique foundation it won't teach you toplay actual songs. You can find sheet music for free on the internet, so that will help you. [url]www.olga.net[/url] is a good website. A great (free!) online lesson-series can be found at: [url]http://guitar.about.com/library/blguitarlessonarchive.htm[/url]. I really recommend it. I heard the Washburn D10s: [url]http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=031018142947152019194095900104/g=guitar/search/detail/base_id/53163[/url] As well as the Fender DG 16s [url]http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=031018142947152019194095900104/g=guitar/search/detail/base_id/37302[/url] are quite good steel string options for beginner. I'm not sure if |I'd recommend buying a guitar online though..I never tried it. As for a guitar recommendation, the best advice I can give you is find someone who knows a good deal about guitars and take him/her to a store that sells used guitars. You will often find great instruments for the price you're willing to pay. Hope that helps, and do give us some info on the styles you like so we can give you some better information. [/QUOTE]
