How Much Are Guitars?

If you are asking the question "How much are guitars?" - then you are truly on your first steps of investigation and I do hope you find my website of value in these early stages.
I run a live chat service (just click on the chat button in the bottom right hand corner) and I can give you advice on how much it may cost to buy your first guitar.
How much a guitar will cost will depend largely on your own personal budget. It is possible to buy a guitar (and acoustic most likely) for as little as £40-£50. However don't expect too much! If you buy a cheap guitar especially at this price point you will most likely find it will:
* Go out of tune very quickly
* Have strings which are very high from the fretboard (high action) resulting in sore fingers and poor "fretting" IE you wont be able to play it very well!
* Made poorly so even if it works now you may find in 6 months or so the top is lifting and it gradually plays worse and worse.
How Much For a "Decent" First Guitar?
I totally understand that not everyone can afford the quality of guitar that I would personally recommend. A quality first guitar should play well, stay in tune and hopefully last you until you want to upgrade. It should inspire you to pick it up and play - well thats my opinion!
If you have the budget I would recommend the Eastman PCH series of acoustic guitars. They are truly wonderful. At £265 for an acoustic and £299 for electro acoustic, they are not cheap but they are guitars that I can personally vouch for and will inspire you to play.
Your guitar would be set up to perfection in our workshop totally free of charge.
