I know there have some past threads on entry level guitar for beginners but I like to ask again based on my requirements. I've always been keen to learn guitar but dare not as I'm kinda slow in understanding music notes. Tried learning organ when I was a kid but that didn't go anywhere. Plus I have short fingers. I'm thinking to give it a second shot on music, maybe enrol in guitar class.

My bro visited a music instrument store and the salesgirl recommended Morrison for ladies. Do u think this is a good choice, keeping in mind I have short fingers (my biggest fear)? If not, any recommendation for a decent entry level guitar? My budget is no more than RM300, and I prefer to not start with a kapok guitar.

any cheap acoustic guitar will do.

Yes i understand. I like to get advice on which of the cheap acoustic guitars is more suitable for short fingers. My ultimate dream is to be able to play finger-style but I know tht's a bit ambitious

Try google acoustic/classical/electric guitar, IMO u should look for small size classical-like with nylon.

go buy a 3/4 size acoustic.

or something slightly bigger but still small.

both also rm700-800 only.

i would really try to stay away from most guitars under rm300.
perhaps a little more closer to rm400 still respectable in yamaha f310...but the body isnt small.

but u can also buy used...can find the corts for rm500+ in used market...and the yamaha for rm300 or so.

cort is decent and acceptable. suit u the most.

Thanks for the tips. Will do a bit more readings on these guitars.

top up some money and get a baby taylor...

baby taylors are over-rated.

Cort guitar is getting expensive every year...is it on par with Squier/Ibanez/Samick? if electric la haha

uhh cort makes guitars for squier and ibanez

omg fml lol

its still not really on par tho

cos u lasist
its no big secret that the indo made ones are better than the china ones...

eh both yellow, how to racist

each time i try a cort its like this cheap squire, they dont have the CV level of guitars

hmm, dunno la...i never really bothered to try any electrics that are made in china
speaking about CV...i always been interested to check out those pine teles...tho there is a reason why fender stopped using pine ages ago...
but i guess just those suckers to vintage stuff would be interested

coz u richfag

the thing about corts is that they are nice, but they have everything a budget guitar has, so you have the weird glossy stuff, the lack of attention to detail, pot metal/plastic/someshit composite bridge and tuners, tuning ratio is wtf and cheap hardware

like an ibanez gio and cheap squire, but they are also priced similarly to both those guitars.

then theres the thing about their guitars feeling sterile

like PRS

pine teles? nice but those ive played need a good setup

i poorfag, only play cort now
the hardware understandable, cos they obviously dont make them...
while the ones they make for others, it is all of cos up to the others what hardware they want to put on it...like those awful floating ibanez bridges

but u still want a PRS ME...

thats cause gibson bought all dy

yea, the wood also, for some odd reason fender CV gets flamed maple on some of their necks, ive never seen this anywhere else

i want a great many things

i think there are more non-flame necks.
just china lazy to sort out and probably just luck of the year production see which one has any

but flame maple necks could be found on squiers going back to the 90s also...also on and off kinda thing.
