Hi

I'm looking around for a cheap guitar (100 dollar budget) to buy as a christmas present. I'm not sure which one I should be looking at, or what brands are good, or any of the technical stuff so I decided to ask the professionals here at GMC wink.gif . Anywho, i'm looking for a guitar that looks beautiful (I have a thing for cutaways biggrin.gif ) has at least 21 frets, and isn't too thick (this is for a girl..so small would be nice). I was looking at the Jasmine by Takamine....and for a while I thought this was the perfect guitar... but its been backordered and I can't get it by early enough. If anyone could suggest me a good quality guitar..that more or less matches what I described, I would greatly appreciate it smile.gif

Thanks in Advance!

Not to rain on your parade, but I would be careful on this. This guy may be fine, but he has sold on item in 6 months. His shipping estimate is probably not right. I would make sure he knows what he is doing shipping an acoustic guitar. Not easy to ship safely, especially this time of year. Could arrive in pieces, and even with coverage, that is a mess. I am sure he is decent based on record, but I would make darn sure he knows how to ship this. He may know nothing about it.

edit: oh, I see you are passing anyway on this. I will leave the comment anyway. Shipping instruments is risky when people don't know what they are doing. I bought my first Les Paul on Ebay, real nice AAA top Gibson Studio. Beautiful flame. But anyway, I contacted the guy and got involved to make sure he knew how to pack it. It turned out that he did not, and so he went to UPS and let them do it. I paid a little more for that, but better safe than sorry.

Also, don't imagine that shipping is not more dangerous this time of year. It is, they hire a lot of temps, and do a lot of volume. If it is something of value, you ship it next day. They have their better people working those items.
