I've played guitar since I was 9, and had a LOT of guitars in that time.
Electro Acoustic are obviously as said the best of both worlds but if you skimp out you'll find that certainly once amped up it will sound horrific even through the pricier amps.
The nicest feeling acoustic guitars I've dealt with definitely have to be Gibson - though generally your looking to pick them up second hand as they are extremely pricey.
I also had a Taylor 114 which aren't too bad about 500 quid new and feel absolutely amazing and sound just beautiful.
I'm not so up on acoustic guitars though - mainly just play electric!

I'm no guitar hero... Get the pun? But I've played various other instruments since I was young... Played 'Cello since I was 8 (ABRSM Grade 8 Distinction mofos) and played Double Bass for about the same time, which turned into playing bass guitar (same thing, octave up, sideways, but a bit easier with frets)...

Trinity is piss water, as is Guildhall... The only proper one is ABRSM... I remember getting into my County orchestra, it says you needed grade 6 ABRSM, grade 7 for guildhall and trinity... LOL!
Miss doing my music, need to do it more, need to get a load of Brass guys and get a big band together....Something I've wanted to.do for years...

So is she a fit rock chick or a classic nerd? This is WAY more important than the actual topic of this thread...
