new guitar..

Unread post by captainp4 » Mon Apr 05, 2004 6:43 pm

hey guys

i'm looking at getting a new guitar, probably acoustic/electric, and was wondering what some suggestions for good guitars in the 700-1000 range would be. also, is the epiphone version of the chet atkins worth looking at?
and i saw a 12 string taylor for 900 at my local guitar center, just wondering if anyone had expierence with this? just looking for some general ideas really..

thanks

Get a six string before a twelve and if you have a six string get the Taylor twelve. God I miss my twelve string it made me happy. :cry:

taylor 12 strings usually have really nice tone. If you can get it for a little less than 900, i would go for it!

Not to mention the fact that Taylor's 12s play better than Martin 6ers.

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.
