Shite! Better toss my old Yamaha FG350W, as it isn't a solid top, but it's sounded so nice till now?

And my Tanglewood - on second thoughts, I'm not sure I want to take a decent guitar on a coach trip.

you can buy solid wood top acoustics all day for under $300...... Washburn, Alvarez, ect.....

But if it is a guitar that u take on camping trips and such, f it and get a cheapy

My first guitar was one of these that I got cheap:



A Fender San Miguel (just happens to be my favourite beer too). Dunno how similar they are, but I love it. Was the only Lefty acoustic on eBay at the time that wasn't a Stagg, so I pounced on it.

Also, that's not mine above. And it's made In Korea I think, late 80's/early 90's.

Junk . didn't like it . Check the CD-140 . A lil more cash but more worth it . Or if you're bold do the Dick Dale Acoustic . Flashy but great sound . That or just say " Fuck Fender " and go with a starter Mexican Martin dreadnought. Those are frickin keepers , Yo.

Oh, I'm sure. But my Tanglewood was £95 on clearance and sounds good enough
