Thread Name: Cheap solid-top guitar?
Subject: RE: Cheap solid-top guitar?
Takimine and Alverez have several solid top guitars in the $250 to $300 range and they have an excellent tone and action. The old idea that a laminate or plywood top will give you its best tone the minute you play it while a solid top takes time to "age in" is by no means proven. On any given day, a given Guitar is manufactured that will either be a jewel or a lemon. You job is to find it.
