WTB acoustic Guitar

im sorry to hear about that 2yr old, its important to know how old she is for the size of the guitar and all of that, what i would do is go over to tringas guitar center there are some really great folks over there who really know their stuff they could tell you what kind she would need to start out on they sale guitars in all price ranges as well as some used ones and if she wants lessons they give great lessons<TABLE cellSpacing=5 cellPadding=5 width=500 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top align=middle width=500 colSpan=2>

/\ ..all good advice so far. I purchased a Baby Taylor for my son, who was 5 at the time (now 7). Its a 3/4 size guitar, but made with some high-end features. It is easier to finger chords on this than most acoustics in the "under $500" range & it sounds great. Having played for over 20 yrs, I find myself picking this guitar often. Search eBay for a deal on one.



At a ¾-scale, the Baby Taylor is the little Dreadnought that could. Taylor?s ultra-portable travel mate belies its size with a sweet, full voice and great tone. It?s remarkably versatile for special applications, whether played in alternate tunings or high-strung; with a capo or a slide. And it?s the perfect starter guitar for young kids.

I've had a few guitars, but never did much with them. I got a cheap electric in HS and tried to learn but gave it up, to hard. After getting bummed I played a friends guitar which was a little more expensive. Man, it was night and day difference. I guess what I'm trying to say is a cheap guitar is cheap and hard to play. Make sure you get a good quality guitar which sounds like you are.

I was also going to suggest getting a good teacher that is age appropiate. Sounds like that might be covered. I put my boy in piano lessons last year and it didn't last long. He was border line to young, but the main issue in my opinion was the teacher didn't know how to teach his age.

Also, don't forget accersories, tuner, case, etc.

And honestly, if you can afford to do this, don't buy her a guitar. Take her to the store and let her pick out what she wants. As said, fit is important. Theres a lot of fun going to the store and trying everything out and picking one for yourself. Go before hand and pick out a good salesperson that will spend some time with her. You can learn alot from a guitar sales person. Sounds like she could use a "me" day as much as a new guitar.
