I dont have one, but my neice(without consulting me) :shock: bought one from HSN or something and asked me to come take a look....."It has an Alligator skin case" she said. "And It's SO pretty!!!" So I go over, and lo and behold........an ESTABON guitar was in her hands... :lol: As I looked at it i noticed some of the (gulp) Rhinestone studs had fallen off...She has since settled with the other one she already had....and sent the EStebon back to HSN.. :wink:

i still have my first and only acoustic. guitar. it is a mid-seventies ovation white top balladeer. i have upgraded my electrics, over the years, but stick with the ovation because i only play it on occasion at home, or if some friends just decide to have a good old fashioned hootenanny.

I have several acoustics,a 66 Harmony Archtone,a 70 Saturn 12 string,an 83 Yamaha FG 346,an 06 Stratacoustic and an Eppy EJ160E John Lennon that is my favourite by far.I just love the tone that wood imparts in an acoustic guitar,you can coax many different tones on an acoustic from sweet and gentle to bright and rousing as you can in an electric but in an acoustic it's a lot trickier.

I just got a Fender Resonator before Christmas (it was an EARLY birthday present). I find myself playing it 3 or 4 times a week but I still love my telecaster.

I used to have an acoustic guitar. It was a Stagg, a guitar manufacturer from Belgium. It was cheap, sounded good though. Sold it to a friend when I was buying a strat. Needed all the money I could get. Now I'm thinking about getting an acoustic again.

I have a alvarez AJ-60sc nat. I bought used last year. nice guitar, lil' too bright, for tone I want. I have a takemine limited edition on layaway, I believe its ash with a curly wood grain top, used. I want to try and play the acoustic more. Started on electric in 1974. I've only played an acoustic, 6 to 8 times over the past year. Just would like to add a different flavor to our sets at gigs.

IMO if you don't play your acoustic very often it's prolly because you don't have a Taylor.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I play my acoustic a lot got this $200 Yamaha as a beater but it proved to be a lot of guitar for the money. Use it just to jam and get some music ideas flowing or just to play songs to my kids.
