    20k n u say a really good!
    Say that you want an average guitar!!

    Acoutics are mor eexpensive than electrics mate!!

    Go for Taylor, or Maritn!! excellent workmanship!

    else Cort! they make good acoutics as well!

    i might push up the budget a bit (if my freinds return some long due money) ..
    i seem to be out of touch with these brands .. never seen any1 with a Cort guitar .. is it a foreign brand ? where can i chk it out ..
    also any word on Takamine/ ovation / other brand ?

    the cort link is not proper!
    My browser detected some malware!

    N i knew that Taylors and Martins are out of your range!
    But they are finest acoustics i have ever played!
    Thats y, u should not name the thread really good acoutic!

    n one more thing, no two acoutic guitars( even same make n model) sound exactly the same!

    Since you are spending decently on your acoustic than i presume that you know what to look for in a guitar!

    in the video it sounds like a pretty good guitar but with the mics and the mixers it;s hard to tell.

    Go for Corts. I personlly like these! Gr8 acoutics good factory set up but never played a 20k cort! So cant really say again!

    My suggestion go check em out!!
    Youd know best!

    If you're really interested in spending that kind of money on an acoustic, I;d advise you to get someone to bring it from abroad. There are nice Yamaha, Fenders, Takamines etc to be had in that price.

    Help needed in buying an acoustic for a complete beginner

    hey even i am planning on buying an acoustic guitar so i have a few queries as well.

    @nemo
    I hope u don't mind if i post my queries also in this thread.

    I am a total rookie right now and i intend to buy a guitar in about 1 or 2 weeks time.
    My budget right now is a mere Rs 3-3.5k so i need suggestions regarding which brand to purchase.

    One of my friend who's learning da guitar suggested me a Hobner guitar. But currently after doing some research work on the net and going through threads here i am considering buying da following guitar-

    Brand: Granada
    Specs: Medium (39”) Guitar, PRS-1 /Black/Vintage Sunburst
    Location: Furtados at Metro, Mumbai
    Price: Rs 2575(according to da price list posted by Vinay)

    What do u guys think of this guitar for a complete beginner?? Any other suggestions are also welcome. Plz help me buy a good VFM guitar in my budget.
    Btw is the Furtados at Metro the main showroom?? I mean, there are other branches of Furtados as well but is this the main one??
    Thanks.

    A Takamine would be really good. A Cort, I'm not sure, but Takamine has a great reputation.

    For something in that range a Fender CD140SCE may also be a good option. I think it is best to go to a good store and try out a few options.
