Hello all. I've been wanted to learn to play the guitar for like 8
years now. I cant hold it anymore :P I've almost everything set, but I
still havent decided what to buy because since I'm not much into the
subject yet, I dont know what's better to buy, etc.
I've done some research though, looked up on Ebay and stuff, and I
pretty much ran into the same 2 models when talking about guitar for beginners.
It's the Fender Squier and the Yamaha Pacifica 112 which seem to be
perfect for what I'm looking for. But I dont know which one is better
really. All I can tell is that they look pretty much the same with the exception that the Yamaha only has a master tone while the Squier has
2 tones and a volume control. That and that the Yamaha is slighty
cheaper.
I'd need some help to decide what to buy. Please note that I'm talking
about the general aspect. Obviously, how it sounds is kinda the most important thing, but I wouldnt like to leave aside how it looks and
other aspects that I might be leaving out.
I also read some comment on the Yamaha and most of the people
recommends it over the Squier, but how come it's cheaper then? Does
this have anything to be with paying the "Fender" logo? Any
suggestions and advice is appreciated. Thanks :D
Buy the Pacifica and walk out with the Squier under your coat? That removes any problems. I'm not sure that you can play either in prison. Back to the drawing board for plan B. Tell your mum/dad/partner that they need to play too so that you can jam
together, get them to buy the opposite one, once they get sore fingers, you get 2 guitars. Other than that I have the Pacifica great quality, played well straight out of the box, only the D string needed tuning.
