[HANASHIR:2818] Re: guitar shopping

[Judy Caplan Ginsburgh <jerd...>]

Try checking some sites on the internet and yes, consumer reports does have
a site.  You might want to see if they have ever done a comparison on
guitars.  Last year, I read in USA Todayan article about guitars and which
were the best, most popular, etc.  You may want to check at the library for
it.
