pj I want to learn how to play the electric guitar. I would like to know what kind of guitar would work best for me? Also whether a Washburn is a good make and if a beginner washburn with a amp amd accessories for R2500 would be a good choice and investment? If not, does anyone have suggestions on what guitar would be best?
wirt Welcome to the forum guy! Why don't you go introduce yourself in the Introductions section? ? Let me point you to this thread: Buying your first gear the smart way - the Singemonkey approach You won't find any better advice on this forum than that post.
pj West Coast- Vredenburg How would the R2500 Washburn compare to a R1500 Sanchez from Cash Crusaders?

wirt Hey pj, help us help you, man ? Which Washburn model are you looking at? What style of music are you interested in playing?
Shibbibilybob At entry level though, you kinda do get what you pay for. I'd stay well away from any guitar sold new at cash converters. In general, there is nothing wrong with washburn guitars, but you would do well to properly check out the exact guitar you plan to buy. If you can, take a friend who already plays. Enjoy dude, what a wonderful hobby.
studmissile Older D10 Washburns are great entry level guitars. A while back there was a Yamaha FG370 Electro/acoustic at Cash Crusader Northmead, for R1200. Really nice guitar, but I think it's sold.
pj I don't know what model it is but it is sold as a pakage deal in a box. I could find out by tomorrow afternoon, ps. I think I would like to play blues, jazz and a bit of rock.
