One more tip. When you try it out, be sure and take it into a practice room. Usually shops have so many stringed instruments in them that the sympathetic vibrations on the other instruments will make the instrument sound better than it is. Take someone with you, and play for them in the practice room. Then have them play for you so you can hear it. Move varying distances away from the instrument. And, of course, make sure the action and body style fit you. You will always remember fondly your old guitar, but choose carefully and you will create many new fond memories.
