I own three acoustics myself. For a nice beginner guitar try an Austin or a Ventura. You can pick one up for a hundred bucks or so. Whatever you do though, DO NOT get a First Act. They are the biggest pieces of shit you can buy. I would not even recomend buying one for a young learner. Rock on man.

If your just begining i wouldnt put to much money into it. It might be better to just go to a local music shop and rent something for a month. If you like it, considering you play bass it should come easy, you should go for a martin. I just purchased the martin dm and i must say it has one of the best/warm sounds ive heard from a guitar. I did my shopping at this local store that seems to be the only high end shop around, everything was well kept. I played a variety of higher end guitars by taylor, fender, takamine, and martin. The martin sounded the best.

St. Lawrence acoustics are just beautiful and good sound, but a lot of them are Spanish guitars. I used to have one, but my parents made me sell it since the case smelled like weed. Hahahahah it sucks I miss it

Wesley nailed it ...ive been playing for close to 50 years now and the best sounding,playing acoustic I have ever had and used daily is a takamini g series 6 string acoustic...they sound so beautifull and they get better with age and you can buy new git for under 300.00 not saying that there are no other options i'm saying you should get the takamini g series it delivers fine tones and its little hard to burry a funky miss placed or bad timed finger and pick commitment that's how tight my g series is ...so you want to do a little pickin and lil strumming get one grab a dean markley sound pickup and a set of elixir light nanoweb git strings and trusty light nylon pick and get er done ...good luck

Get yourself to a shop & try them out. I've played for 55 yrs now & I can tell you, its the feel & sound & it has to be right for YOU. No 2 people are alike & the same goes for guitars. I use a different one according to my mood. My dad made guitars, mandolins, violins & banjos. Your choice is a very personal thing. If you have a shop near by where you can rent, that was a great sugestion. Once you learn the basics, try out as many as you can get your hands on before you choose. You may end up with sore fingers, but you won't be sorry.
I\'m an ole\' tree huggin hippie. I do what I like & like what I do.
