Hi Clare,

Congrats on getting through the Fundamentals 1+2!

What kind of guitar you buy depends on a few factors. Here are some questions for you. Let me know your answer to these, and then I'll see if I can help you narrow it down.

1. What general price range would you be most comfortable with? (under $250, 250-400, 400-650, 650-800, 800-1000)? Or more? Or less?

2. How tall are you? (many women do better with slightly smaller guitars than many guys go for)

3. Do you live near a guitar store where you could go try a few different options out?

4. I'm guessing that you mean you'll be buying a steel string (as opposed to another nylon string) guitar. Are you aware that there will be some changes for you to get used to? (slimmer neck, tougher strings, different tonality, etc.)

5. Do you want a used, or a new guitar?

Best wishes, Lisa
