Washburn Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar - with Gig Bag, Strap and Picks Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just purchased this guitar package and all I can say is BUY ONE AS SOON AS YOU CAN FIND ONE. This guitar should easily sell for at least $700.--BY ITSELF! The guitar has an on board WT-92 preamp-tuner(very accurate) along with a spruce top with mahagony sides and back and the detail work on it is simply OUTSTANDING!! You also get a padded Washburn gigbag along with several pics and guitar strap and an instructional cd. I own a couple of other really nice guitars but I can already tell I'll be playing this one more often than the others in the future. You can spend a lot more money and get a lot less guitar but why would you?

Dean Performer Mini Jumbo Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Classic Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for a good guitar in this price range and had narrowed it down between the Ibanez AEL10EBK and the Dean Performer E Acoustic Electric Guitar. They seemed pretty equivalent from their description. Originally I had decided on the Ibanez because it had an established name (I never heard of Dean) and the pickup it used was an established brand ( a Fishman Sonicore). By contrast the Dean had it's own pickup which I knew nothing about. I was about to buy the Ibanez but I wanted to hear it first. I went to a local music store and took it down to try out. To my surprise it sounded very shallow, wooden, and muddy. There was very little resonance to the instrument. It sounded almost like a solid body guitar. When you strum all the strings at the same time it sounds muddled. I plugged in the Ibanez and found it sounded the same way. It was muddled. You didn't hear the individual strings. Just an overall "blahhh". As it happens, another music store down the street had the Dean Performer E so just for kicks I went there to try it out. I was shocked by how beautiful it sounded for such an inexpensive guitar. The instrument resonated. You could hear each string brightly and clearly. When plugged into an amp the sound was bright, and full. I also found that the Dean had an "on-board" tuner with a graphic LED output that allowed you to tune the guitar instantly. This tuner is actually one of the best I have ever used. It tells you exactly when the string is in tune. It doesn't bounce around all over the place like other tuners I've used. I found from this experience that "name" isn't everything. Sometimes products from an established and well known company can under-perform newcommers. In this case that is exactly what I found. Needless to say I bought the Dean and have been very happy with it since.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this guitar for my daughter's 16th birthday gift! She is just learning to play but I wanted her to have a really nice guitar to start with and that would last her a while and after researching this one I decided that it was the one! The price is very affordable and being so much below retail price it is SO worth it! I have had several friends and family members that play and they have played it and have loved how it sounds and the quality of the guitar! Therefore...I would have to say that anyone who buys this guitar will not be disappointed!!!

Fender CD-60CE Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Got this guitar for my husband's birthday gift. When he opened it at his party, it was a totally different and cheaper guitar. When I contacted Amazon about a replacement, I was told that they did not have any in stock. They ended up refunding my money and I sent the guitar back. It was a total disappointment and I was really looking forward to giving him the guitar. Kudos to Amazon for making it right though.

Fender Starcaster Acoustic Guitar Pack with Accessories - Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a very nice guitar package for beginners. The guitar itself is solid and holds the tune well. The overall package also represents a fantastic value. Everything one needs is there, including a tuner, a stand, picks and even spare strings. The instructional DVD is quite nice as well. I have no problem following the courses so far. The lessons only cover the basic chords, but still enough to get one started.
The price here fluctuates, but tends not to be very competitive. Some buyers have even received used guitars posing as new. Check out overstock.

Seagull Entourage Rustic CW QIT Acoustic-Electric Guitar Rustic Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I won't lie to you, I'm a Seagull guy. I went in looking for a great guitar at a great price, and while I was open to veer away from my coveted Seagull-made guitars if the right deal were to be available, I simply couldn't do it. I tried out a bunch of different guitars in my price range, and the Seagull Entourage Rustic CW QI(T) won, hands down. First of all, the tuning machines are basically the solid chrome Ping tuning machine heads disguised with Seagull logos. I love this because I am very picky about my tuning machines and often swap out my guitars' machine heads for said Ping parts. Next, the nut width of the neck is narrower than the standard Seagull nut width, which makes it more comparable to a Martin or Taylor or something of that nature. This makes the transition for a non-Seagull acoustic player a little smoother. Third, the action is comfortable, but not too comfortable. If the action is too low and too easy to push down, sound is compromised, this is not so here. I believe this is the softest action a guitar can have without taking away from the sound or causing buzzing or things of that nature. The Godin electronics are flawless, and sleekly designed. As in the "Rustic" name, even the electronics stay true to this look, and the style and functionality are both top of the line. This is one of the few (if not only) Seagull in this price range with a cutaway, and that is important because it allows for more flexibility and mobility on the neck for those who like to utilize every available fret on the guitar. The overall look is nice. At first, I thought the sunburst was a little too much, but after a couple hours of staring at it, I have grown to love it. Finally the most important thing about this guitar is the sound. The guitar possesses a very full, vibrant, diverse sound. There is a slight twang in the timbre, but it is not overbearing, leaving for a warm and perfect acoustic sound for almost any style or application. I do not believe a better guitar can be bought for this price, but I must point out the negative. As with my old Seagull, the wood feels rather soft, so with some ruckus playing and misguided strumming, the wood can wear away and damage the surface more easily than other guitars. This is a small price to pay for an otherwise very powerful acoustic-electric package. Besides, I like when my guitars get that worn-in look, so this is not at all a negative for me personally. I would recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a guitar as in such a short time; it has grown so dear to my heart.

LR Baggs Venue DI Direct Box Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I would have given this product five stars if the tuner stomp function was 100% reliable, which it isn't.
Otherwise, Baggs has created a great update to it's classic Para-Acoustic D.I.
I love the easily accessible knobs, in contrast to the Para's harder to reach (especially the gain control) knobs. However, the Venue does have one out-of-reach knob, and that is the adjuster for the 0-9db boost "stomp" function, which is a great feature on this pedal and one I use frequently during performance. I just wish I could adjust the db setting more easily; it's the one knob that is hard to access. Bummer.
The tuner issue I mentioned is the following: about 15% of the time (which is way too often), when I stomp the mute/tuner switch, the signal indeed mutes, but the tuner does not light up and engage. I have to stomp and re-stomp several times to activate the tuner when this occurs. Lame and annoying onstage.
Overall tone of the Venue is meaty and strong -- as good if not better than what I had with the Para, which I used for years before acquiring the Venue. I am happy with this product, but I really could use a stomp tuner that activates when it's stomped, 100% of the time.

Washburn Classical Series Acoustic Electric Cutaway Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm not a professional guitar player and never will be. Still, when I play, I want to sound as good as I can. I also want the option to be able to play as many types and styles of music as the mood may strike, so a nylon-stringed "classical" guitar is the best of all worlds for me. Add the desire to be able to plug in an amp along with working on a limited budget, and the field of instruments narrows quickly.

I couldn't be happier that my choice was the Washburn C64SCE. What a gorgeous, well-made guitar! After only a month, the guitar has opened up wonderfully, with a rich, clear tone. String action was nearly perfect out of the box. Tuning is remarkably precise, and it stays in tune better and longer than any other guitar I've owned. It's incredibly easy to be expressive on this guitar as it has a terrific volume range; no amp necessary.

This is the less-expensive brother of the C104SCE, which has a cedar top (instead of spruce) and rosewood back and sides (instead of the ovankol of the C64). Even though the woods of the C64 are less costly, the sound is amazing. The sustain is comparable to rosewood, but I think it projects even better with nice treble.

The electronics work well, and having a chromatic tuner built-in is a plus. The guitar is hefty and seems very solidly constructed. Fit and finish are better than I would've expected at the price point.
The hard case is sold separately. My research shows the proper case is the Washburn GC77, which has been sold out for several months but is available on back order through several of Amazon's partner sites.

Alvarez Regent Series RD12CE Dreadnought Acoustic / Electric with cutaway Guitar, Natural / Satin finish Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar will last you from beginner way past being an intermediate player.
Let me tell you why:
-Low action (strings relatively close to fretboard for easier playing)
-Built-in tuner
-Amp capabilities
-Comes with it's own hardshell case
Those are probably the most attractive reasons for a beginner to buy this, but there are more pros like the following:
-Great resonance!
-Mature unglossed finish that looks very badass
-Doesn't have a buzz when you play notes in the middle of the fretboard (unlike my old Washburn WD10SCE [$250])
I cannot gush enough about this guitar because it's everything I wanted my first guitar to be.
Please seriously consider this item if you're looking for an amazing cutaway Electric-Acoustic guitar; it will not disappoint!

Oscar Schmidt by Washburn OG10CE Full Size Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar Combo with AB Gig Bag, Stand, and Strings - Transparent Blue Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)for the price, this guitar is the shiz. im 17 and play rhythm in a band. Unplugged, the guitar doesnt have that big dreadnought sound, but it still sounds good. Plugged in, it sounds great. The strings it comes with (it comes out of tune btw) arent the best but will do. You can always buy new ones for 6 bucks. Also, while playing, the neck is a tad thick and the action a tad high. Although you can't change the neck, you can lower the action because of its adjustable truss rod (it comes with the tool to do it too). The finish is siiiiiick and i could stare at it all day. I'd give it a 4 out of 5 because it may not be the best guitar out there, but it looks and sounds better than it should for this price. It's a steal- a case, stand, and the guitar for less the 200 bucks? awesome!!

Fender DG-8S Value-Pack, Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this guitar last year to begin taking acoustic guitar lessons. I love the sound of this guitar, it is rich, warm, and has a good tone. It does not sound tinny or cheap. I went to the Guitar Center and played this instrument before purchasing it. I recommend using metal strings. Nylon strings sound terrible! I think this guitar is a great value for the money. The action on this guitar is good, and not too difficult when learning how to play. I have small hands and the fretboard does not feel too wide. I am still struggling to learn, but that is because I don't take the time to practice. This guitar is pretty and I have it displayed in my living room when I am not using it.

Fender CD-100CE Left Handed Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am hardly an expert at playing guitar. But here is my take--this guitar has a nice sound, looks beautful and has such a low actions that the strings practically play themselves. Also has extra strap button so you don't have to attach the strap at the head(easier on your neck). If you are a beginner you can take this guitar around expert musicians and not feel embarassed that you have a cheap 'starter guitar'. Also comes in lefty which is nice, but no fair that southpaws have to pay more than righties.
Overall, highly recommend.

Takamine G Series EG523SC Jumbo Acoustic Electric Guitar, Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The guitar is playable right out of the box. Action is high but reasonable, but the more you play it the more you like it. This is my first, and I love it. Takamine customer service (via email) is great; they would answer any question you might have. The guitar comes with DAddario EXP16 according to them. I did change them to EPX10 Extra Light Coated 8020 and it is a better player. Next will be a good setup by a professional. Get a humidifier; I got the Planet Waves Acoustic Guitar Humidifier System, plain and simple. Get a case as well, I bought the Takamine case that is very secure and keeps the guitar well. I played a Gibson similar to the Takamine, and no much difference but the price. I put both guitars thru a good amp. With no amp, I experience little difference. The guitar stays in tuned for days once the strings have stretched. The wood grain in the guitar is beautiful, it looks and sounds like a $2000 guitar. Don't let people know. Is a Korean made guitar, which tells you that is good quality. With no more to say. Get one, have fun and play it a lot.

New Black Cutaway Acoustic Guitar W/ Accessories Combo Kit Beginners Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am very happy with this purchase. I've always wanted to learn the guitar but I didn't want to pay a lot of money for a beginner' guitar. I searched online for quite a while and came upon this guitar. I saw the price of it and all the additional items that came with it and thought to myself that since it's so "cheap" and I'm just learning to play, it would be a good deal to purchase it. I also thought that because is was so cheap, that the quality of the guitar would be poor. I'm happy to say that I was wrong. The quality of this "cheap" guitar is outstanding. I am so pleaed with it, plus all the items that came with it. I feel as though I "stoled" it. What a great product. I just love it. It looks and sounds wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good guitar, even those who play professionally.
