Guitar Center Play Money
Friends:
The zombie thread about the best guitar deal you ever had emboldens me to ask a question I've been wondering about. Here's the thought experiment: Imagine that a guy walks up to you, hands you $300 bucks-- with the condition that you walk into Guitar Center and spend it on a new acoustic guitar for yourself. What would you buy? I'm really curious about your answers. Remember--you are buying for you. So that includes everybody here with seventy delicious Martins in their signature. No fair buying for a grandson. It can be something you'd be curious about. Something to use for firewood. But you have to buy a guitar with it.

I'd purchase a Gretsch G9521, but I think it may have been discontinued....

So some sort of small body “blues box,” but I’ve yet to find one I like in this price range.

I'd be trying one of the less expensive Yamahas, without a doubt - unless there was a playable resonator of some description available.

$300 ???
Probably an Alvarez Artist Parlor or Folk. On sale those get under 3-bills. If the low end Breedlove Nylon is on sale (or used) then one of those, as I could use a Nylon with a pickup. Maybe a short-scale electric Bass. I have been meaning to learn bass.
