• If you want to play the guitar, then you
  have made a good choice of hobby. Great stuff - a
  very well informed choice! A misconception,
  however is that most people do not realise that,
  whilst the guitar looks quite easy to play, it is
  in fact quite difficult to master and takes a lot
  of effort, time and dedication.

• What does the above have to do with buying a
  guitar?
• Well if you are intending to start guitar
  then you will need a guitar to begin with. There
  are many options out there to consider when
  buying a guitar. Make a visit to your local
  guitar store, you will see prices that range from
  45 right up to 5000 and beyond. If you are a
  guitar newbie then what do you buy? What are the
  differences between the cheap guitars and the
  more expensive guitars?

• There are many factors that make a cheap
  guitar cheap and an expensive guitar expensive.
  As with any products there are brand names
  involved. Top brands such as Gibson, Ibanez and
  Fender will command a lot more money for a guitar
  with a similar quality of materials used than a
  guitar by a lesser known brand.

• It is the way the world works in almost all
  markets - brand names cost more. I personally use
  branded guitars because at least with a brand
  name you do buy a degree of trust. You know that
  the price paid does reflect the quality of the
  product, although it is a little more expensive.

• If you are totally new to the guitar or you
  haven't played much before then it would be crazy
  to go out and buy a high specification guitar as
  you could be wasting your money. If you decide a
  month down the line that the guitar is not for
  you, you have wasted a fortune that was not
  necessary.

• At the other end of the scale if you go for
  a really cheap guitar you could actually be put
  off by learning the guitar full stop. How could
  this be? Well, cheap guitars generally use a lot
  cheaper, lower grade materials and components.
•  
• Problems can start to occur such as the
  guitar constantly going out of tune, the
  intonation being out, generally not playing
  nicely or fret buzz. The list goes on. All of
  these things can be very off putting for a
  guitarist and can cause abandonment of the hobby.

• For a first guitar I would recommend that
  you do not go for a well-known brand. I would
  also suggest that you also do not go for the
  cheapest it should do the job of allowing you to
  learn the basics of the guitar and establish if
  learning the guitar is for you.
•  
• If after a few months you still have the
  motivation and inspiration to continue with your
  learning then you may like to consider trading in
  your old guitar for something a little nicer. 
• If you want to buy cheap acoustic guitars,
  then search the Internet to get the best deals.
