Help picking out guitar for sister

Unread post by keystone » Fri Dec 16, 2005 7:21 pm

Whats up everyone. This christmas my 16 old sister is getting a guitar and I am picking it out. What are some good beginner model guitars that will be easy enough for her to play. The budget for this guitar is not very high, but I want to accomplish the goal of getting a guitar that will be enough to keep her interest and she can get a good one in the future. Thanks for any help.

My gf bought this guitar: http://www.alvarezgtr.com/productpage.h ... ItemID=108

I think its perfect for girls, its smaller and for the money it sounds amazing. Shes probably played it 10 times, it just sits in its hard shelled case. Im sure she'd be willing to sell it if you were interested.

i also bought this guitar cause i like the sound and feel of the 000/folk style against the dreadnought style. very good guitar for the money.

Get her one of those pink daisy rock guitars. :lol:
