‘what is the best guitar to buy?’

Welcome – please feel free to share your a little about yourself in the intro thread at the top.

Welcome to the fold, Belle 🙂

Life is full of surprises!…

But i do believe in the element of surprise…
I wont surprise you guys…will stay and learn…..

and glad you do, Ralphie 😀 . Also, to our other, very welcome, semi-newbs.

and there is those that do stay! 😀

Sometimes I spend a good bit of time researching for new users – namely for the posts 1bass speaks of – ”’What sort of guitar do I own??”’

It is dissapointing when you find out they don’t intend to stay on as regular users.

In many cases, this is the 1-post, “I have a guitar with six strings and six metal knobs at the end that make the strings sound lower and higher. The neck has dots and metal strips across it. There is a small hole in the side of the guitar that my friend (who is an expert) tells me is used to plug into an amplifier. I stole… I mean, found it in the loft and it has the words “Fensonbacker Made in USA’ and a serial number ‘xxx-xxx’ but I haven’t typed this info into Google because I’m too thick/lazy. Any idea what it’s worth?”

One of us does the required search, looks at completed eBay listings, and posts a reply. Our new chum then flogs it to a pawn shop before the rozzers notice his electronic tag is wrapped round the leg of his pit bull terrier most nights. I used to do the replying, with Lee smirking at me for bothering. Nowadays, Guy, you’re doing most of this thankless donkey work. Permission to smirk? 😆
