I mostly buy used instruments these days. My current Cordoba F10, GK Pro negra, and GK Pro blanca were all bought used from ebay, or Musician's Friend for $500-700. They were all 2-3x those prices new. I've owned new GK Pros, a C12, etc... and I'd rather let someone else take the new price hit these days. So, in short... you get a LOT more guitar for your dollar when you buy used. I've owned 200+ instruments over the past 34 years. The acoustic ones ranged from a new $100 Yamaha Guilele uke to $4K Breedlove Masterclass Bossa Nova nylon cutaway. And used, well cared-for instruments are where it's at in terms of value.
