Looking for a decent beginner acoustic guitar

I would have put this in the wanted section but it says for banshee related items in the description.

 

Anyway, I'm looking for a decent beginner acoustic guitar.... Full size. If you have something and we can work out a deal or a price please pm me with make and model. Thanks a lot.

I'd check out some local pawn shops. Guitars are pretty big at the ones here in cali. I've got an epiphone 6 string that I don't really use but I don't think it would be worth the shipping. Plus it was only $200 or something new.

Yep. Pawn shops have some decent axes. If you have a Sam Ash or something close by that would do the trick too.If you buy from a good well known guitar store they check out their used stuff and make sure it's worth while selling it to someone else.

Washburn,Ibanez,Yamaha all have decent acoustics for 250-400 bones.I just bought a new Yamaha AES 620 and this thing rips.

I have an uncle that plays 6 to 8 hrs a day when he's on. He tried out a yamaha that I'm buying for a starter. Inexpensive and sounds good enough.

My brother bought a used Yamaha for $200 right after I'd bought my new $200 Epiphone. His sounds 1000% better than mine and he never even learned to play it. Bastard.

i have played for 20 years and i recomend going to a few local music shops and looking around..pick a few guitars up and play with them in the store.i can tell you to buy a guitar that i realy like but it all comes down to finding one that you like and feel good playing..some guys like a full size some like a mid size..your best bet is to go talk to the local store and tell them what it is you are looking for play a few and find the one that fits you..personaly my favorite guitar is my taylor but then again it cost an arm and a leg..pawn shops are a good start but i have noticed most used guitars in there are almost the same price as a new one from a store..also check the string set up..some people like steel string others like nylon.i personaly like both but i lean a bit more tward nylon for the fact that they dont rip your fingers apart like steel does.
