Back to school?
Nope, pricing on these aren't all that special - but it's useful to keep in mind how much a brand new instrument is gonna set ya back - there's always a beginner who's curious enough to ask - so here's a cheat sheet ? :
At Bothners
Yamaha F310 @R1995 - The Beginner Steel string guitar
Yamaha C40 @ R1650 - The Beginner Nylon string guitar
Cort AD810 @R1395 - The budget alternative to yamaha
And you can get a 'Darestone' nylon stringer in 1/2. 3/4 and full size between R750-850
These prices are preeettyy much the same for most retialers around the country - maybe a extra 10-15% either way.
