There are a number of good guitars in the $300.00 range. I do not know how long or how well you play but, the most important thing for a new guitarist to consider is the neck. How far off the fret board are the strings? If they are to high, it will hurt your fingers and sooner than later, you will chuck it in the fire place! Just not worth the pain! As far as tone, for $300.00, you will not get exceptional tone but this is a personal matter of what you think sounds good. Shop around and play a lot of guitars. If you find one that doesn't hurt your fingers and sounds good, snag it. Also, used guitars can be a great bargin. Look in pawn shops and the paper. I have found some really good guitars, www.garrisonguitars.com - exceptional guitars with the AG series running about $300.00. I played one in a music store and bought it. A couple months later I bought one of their Limited edition guitars. I have owned many Fender Telecasters and Stratocasters and Gibson acoustic guitars and I think the garrisons are super good guitars and easy to play. Hey, good luck and keep on jammin man!

Hi, pulleyson!

I know that you are new here and sometimes it can be hard to figure out how to use a site such as this. It's a good idea to look at the date of an original question before posting answers. I would think that since sbhutch88 posted the question in 2006, that sbhutch88 probably by now has obtained a guitar. It's also best to be using correct spelling and grammar on this site if you want to be understood the best since we operate here on an international level.

Thanks!
