Guitar????

Ovation makes great guitars.
Of the Ovations, I think the deep bowls sound the best.
Washburn also make some great budget guitars.. i've seen some for around $100 new. I once bought 2 guitars used off ebay… an Ovation Custom shallow bowl cutaway and a Washburn. The Ovation cost me 4 times what the Washburn cost me, but it's the Washburn that I love.. I just love it's sound and the way it plays. I plan to sell the Ovation. We also have an Ovation deep bowl from probably the 1970s, which has great sound and won't be going anywhere. Washburn makes some great budget guitars you can get for around $100. If you watch craigslist.org in your area, you can find great deals. People buy guitars, never get around to learning and eventually sell them. You can find some good (if short) guitar lessons on youtube for starters. There are alot of guitar lesson dvd's out there that can be helpful. Maybe check your library to see if they have any you can get started on. There's even a Guitar playing for Dummies book with dvd. It's always handy to have a guitar chord chart handy for referance. You can get them from a music store or probably copy one off the internet. I had one for years that was in the back of a girlscout handbook Ha.
Good luck.
