Hi!

Today i went to the guitar shop where i had the opportunity to try some cheap acoustic guitar for beginner just like Epiphone DR-100, Fender CD-60, Eko and Yamaha FG800.

Between the 4 i prefere the Epiphone DR-100 because of its much deeper and full sound and feeling.

Fortunately on the web I've found a good deal for a Washburn WD7SACS and WD10: by seeing the reviews and videos on youtube it seems to sound better than Epiphone but i have never played it nor any sellers near my city owns it.

The sound seems much fuller and bright, just like some more expensive guitars like Seagull, Taylor, Martin etc.

Some of you have had experience with these brand?

Have you got some suggestions?

Thank you!

Hi KillboyPowerhead,

I can only speak to Epiphone DR-100 and the Yamaha FG800. I agree with you, the Epiphone model I played felt nice and sounded full. The FG800 looks a bit nicer though.

For me, it's all about sound and feel. If it sounds good and feels good, then pull the trigger. You can get stuck looking for guitars forever! But I say go with your gut and choose the one that feels good and sounds good to you.


If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact us.

Yeah i agree with you, but that Washburn seems so lovely!

I promise myself to make a choice in a week since acoustic guitar is my birthday self-present

Epiphone DR100 is great and not only for beginners. I can also recommend Pro1 and Ibanez pc15[br]https://musicsquare.co.uk/154551_Epiphone-PRO1-VS-Acoustic-Guitar-Vintage-Sunburst.html[br]https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PC15NT
