New guitar time
Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2016 2:25 am
So, my old Martin got a bit smashed up coming back from Portland last year, and insurance finally gave me some money for it. It stills plays OK on open chords, but goes slightly out of tune if I use a capo.
So, trying to decide on new axe. Not many guitar shops in Toowoomba, but would like to buy one here instead of having to drive down to Brisbane.
Currently tossing up between:
Martin DCPA5K for $1499
http://bandland.net.au/products/453/Martin%20DCPA5K
Takamine EF360SC for $1999
http://bandland.net.au/products/420/Takamine%20EF360SC
Takamine EF340SC for $1599
http://bandland.net.au/products/420/Takamine%20EF340SC
Any suggestions? Never played a Takamine - but they seem OK in the shop.
This is about the full extent of the range available locally here in TWBA:

Its either this, of drive to Brisbane and maybe check out some Matons or (cheaper) Taylors.
