£139

Vintage V-400 Steel Strung Guitar

This is an upgraded acoustic guitar, ideal for an adult beginner looking for an instrument with a fuller tone that will keep them interested longer. The guitar has a "solid top" which gives a much better tone. Generally solid top guitars cost a lot more than beginners need to spend, but this particular Vintage is excellent value. The difference is that the wood used for the top of the guitar (the front) is not laminated so it resonates better and therefore sounds better. Overall this is superb value - I'm even adding a gig bag to to the package (RRP £179)

 

£79

Santos Martinez SM44 Classical

This is a fine little nylon strung, with a surprisingly good tone and stable tuning. Very popular as an adult's beginner or a first 4/4 classical - and also as a nice little beach guitar for those lazy, hazy Summer singalongs. Complete with a carrying bag.

£99

Martinez SM50

A good classic , with a sweet tone, surprisingly responsive for the price. Good for beginners - either adults looking for something reasonable or youngsters going to their first full size. Nice, playable, stable - it's difficult to argue with for the money. Normally £119, and I'm even adding a bag. Bargain.

£299

Walden G740CE

This is Walden's electro-acoustic smaller body cutaway. It sits very comfortably with a good neck that is very playable. The tone is full and rounded, but with a crispness from the natural finish and solid top. The pickup system is a Fishman Classic 4-Band EQ for control, giving an excellent sound. This system is used on many guitars - often much pricier ones. This is a good value instrument able to cope with being a nice acoustic for home, but also with recording or live. Complete with a gig bag.

 

£199

Walden 610

This is a nice solid-top acoustic from Walden - one of my favourite acoustic manufacturers. They make well constructed instruments with a tone that belies the price. This is a standard model in their range, dreadnought sized with a bit of crispness to the sound. Comfortable to play it is a bit lighter in tone and weight than some others - the best description is "clean". I've packaged this with a gig bag

 

£129

Vintage V-300 Steel Strung Guitar

This is the folk size body version of the V-400 upgraded acoustic guitar. Ideal for an adult beginner looking for a slightly smaller body for greater comfort - or a player looking for a lighter, more controllable tone. The guitar has a "solid top" which gives a much better tone, and the same superb build quality as the dreadnought size. Overall this is superb value - I'm even adding a gig bag to the package.

 

 

£149

Vintage V-400 12 String

This is the 12-String version of the Vintage V-400 Dreadnought. An amazingly playable instrument for the price - it actually works out of the box! The solid top gives a full tone and the whole guitar balances beautifully. Ideal for 'those' moments, when only twelve strings will do. Fantastic value, and complete with a bag.

 

£249

Recording King RD17 Black

This is the solid top model dreadnought - in black - with a decent neck - in black - complete with a gig bag - in black. This plays well, with a full tone with that little bit of bite to cut through properly. A good all round guitar - in black - at a great price. In black.

 

£229

Recording King RD16

A new line for us, these are wonderfully rich, powerful acoustics with a well balanced tone and necks you can dig in to play. This model is Dreadnought size, with a comfortable neck, made with a solid spruce top, and laminated mahogany back and sides. It has the fullness from the top, and a nice bright ring from the body. It has plenty of power for such a reasonably priced instrument and would make a good performance guitar.

 

£229

Recording King RO16

One of the new line of guitars, this is a 000 sized guitar with a solid spruce top and laminated mahogany back and sides. It gives a full tone, with surprising power for the smaller body. The body size makes it a very comfortable guitar to play, and the slightly wider fingerboard lends itself to picking and blues styles almost instinctively. This is a very responsive pickers guitar with great clarity for such a low price.

 

£349

Recording King RD27 New Price

This is one of the all-solid Recording Kings, in the classic Dreadnought size. It has a solid spruce top, and the sought after solid rosewood back and sides. This gives it a rich tone with loads of power and projection. The balanced character stays intact when given some serious stick and the tone makes even US-style heavy chords sound clean and accurate. A lot of instrument for the money.

Faith Guitars

This is a new range for us - and so good we've given them their own page. And yes, they're as good as the hyperbole. Honest.

£35

THE GUITAR YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR

This is a fine handcrafted musician's tool, designed for the discerning beginner or the travelling artist, a pleasure to play with a smooth, singing tone with a hint of the saltiness of the ocean...

Or - it is a fun little instrument designed to create interest in music and to make learning a little less serious. It would also make a silly travel guitar. Importantly it is a standard junior guitar (it's been sized to fit most kids) that plays properly and will tune up, so can be learnt on. Complete with a bag and a strap this is a fun little guitar.

£199

Admira Malaga Outfit Manager's Special

This is a lovely classical guitar from Spain. I recommend these as a first 'Classical' guitar because they have a good rich tone with plenty of response and are nice to play. A good buy, I package these with a decent ABS hard case to make a proper outfit.

 

£249

Vintage VEC380N Special Price

This is the six string standard VEC380 - and a very good electro it is. Slim, comfortable and playable, but still with a decent amount of tone. The Shadow electrics work well to reflect the character and the neck fits the hand well. A great all rounder and fantastic value - and I've even included a bag.

 

£499

Hofner Delux G-Banjo Outfit

A decent resonator banjo, this is a great instrument for moving to from a starter option - especially if you've been playing a little while. Very playable with a very punchy yet warm sound, it's much less 'tinny' than its budget brethren. Packaged complete with a delux hard case, this is a good value outfit which will last quite a few years of happy playing.

 

£299

Tanglewood DLX24 G-Banjo

This is a very good banjo, ideal for a beginner looking for a slightly better tone than usual. A good neck coupled with excellent hardware makes this superb value, and I've even packaged it with a decent gig bag. Highly recommended. Available left-handed at no extra charge (!).

 

£249

Vintage VUB50 Banjelele Special Price

This is a fun instrument - a soprano banjo uke, technically. Nice to play, with that classic 'Plinkety' (Technical Term) sound, and a surprising amount of volume. Ideal for those Formby days.... Normally £299 they're a good price, and I'll include a gig bag to carry it to all those rock gigs.....

 

Welcome to the acoustic guitar department. Here we have steel strung acoustics with and without pickups, nylon strung guitars with and without pickups and the folk instruments - not surprisingly with and without pickups. There is quite a variety, but all have been selected (yes, I select and buy my own stock - if I like it I buy it if not, then not) to be good value for money. Selecting an acoustic guitar can be a very personal preference, but I try to pick instruments that have a good basic quality for their cost. If you don't like the action on a guitar, I can adjust it to preference for a very reasonable (don't laugh) price. We also keep a wide variety of acoustic strings as the differences can be important to the sound of a guitar - if you need advice just ask, we can bore for hours on strings and plectrums and capos and....... We also keep pickups in stock, so if you need one later on we can provide that too. Acoustic basses are in the Bass Department and we have beginners guitars in the Beginners Department (no surprises there).
