What is a good and really cheap acoustic guitar?

Question

okayy so i've been playing guitar for a year next month so i'm not really looking for that "ideal for novices" thing. I've been playing a electric the whole time i've been learning. At the moment I own a Epiphone SG standard. I don't really want the acoustic in the 100s price range, I know i'm gonna get people saying that I HAVE to be in that price range in order to get a good acoustic but I simply can't afford it at the moment.
So after going into major detail about guitars i'm leaving it to you..
Please suggest GOOD guitars which are CHEAP
thanks =D

I want the Dean Exotica Quilt Ash acoustic-electric. That thing is beautiful and not too expensive.

Answer 2

Get Musicians Friend Magazine. It is free. They have many cheap yet good electric and acoustic guitars. I buy all my instruments from them. Ibanez would be your best choice, or a cheap Washburn if you can find one. I am actually gonna buy a violin from them soon.

Answer 3

hey, i have a secret to share with you
pretty much all acoustic guitars sound the exact same
it really doesn't matter
i know that's not what the people selling you the guitars will say (obviously)
and even most guitarists have become delusional about this
i'm not saying there's no difference, i'm just saying get a cheap guitar and treat it well

Answer 5

The good brand name ones would be Takamin, Ibanez, etc. Fender and Gibson even make decent acoustics. But what I would do if I were you is just go on Craigslist.com or ebay and find a cheap, but decent acoustic. Mine was bought for $60 and I love it.

Just don't buy Wal-Mart brand guitars..

Answer 6

Most 'ARIA's' that are sold second hand are extremely good because they seem to sound better with age- something in the wood aging I think- most are around £150 new so I suppose you'd pick a decent one up for £60 out of the paper- a new set of strings and away you go!

Answer 7

well... i know this sounds stupid but First Act guitars at walmart have a decent...... sound to them.. also you might want to check out pawn shops around your area.. i just picked up a nice electric bass guitar for $60.

Answer 8

Harmony

Answer 9

Answer 10

Ibanez guitars are good or Dean

Answer 11

if you dont have the money dont buy cheap. its not worth it. save money till youve got enough for a decent guitar and then buy. im not saying save untill youve got enough for a gibson or martin or anything liek that. just save till you can buy a 200-400 dollar epiphone or something like that.you wont be a novice forever and thats where a cheap guitar will kill you. better yet buy an epiphone dot or soem kind of semi hollow body that doubles as a second electric?

but if your still stuck on the cheap guitars theres a squier pack out for 95 bucks. it comes with the guitar the strap and a gig bag. if you get that i highly recomend buying new strings. a pack of elixer nanowebs do fine on any acoustic.
