Hello,
I'm new to the site and it looks great! I am looking to buy my first guitar.
I was at a music store today and a Yamaha FG700S caught my eye. They wanted $309 for it (Brand new). Is that a fair price? I tried a bunch of guitars and IMO this one felt and sounded the best for the price (Plus its a solid top). Does anyone have a comparable guitar that they are willing to sell? Thats the upper end of my price range. I am a student so my budget is very tight.
Here are some specs for the FG700S:
Solid Sitka Spruce Top
Nato Back and Sides
Rosewood Fingerboard
Rosewood Bridge
Black / White Body Binding
Tortoise Pickguard
Diecast Tuners
I have also been to the local hock shops but I have seen nothing that interests me.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan Munn
