Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | I have a good friend whose son plays piano and would like to start guitar. OF course, his instructor said that he should get a Martin but my friend was smart enough to call me.
So.....does anyone have a nice guitar in the sub $500 range they would be willing to part with to help convert another young mind into the Ovation fold.
Unfortunately, I do not have any guitars in the price range so I am turning to my OFC buddies. |

Location: Back in the Valley of the Sun Mesa Az. | CC65 Deep Bowl A/E One of the easiest playing 12's I've ever played...However, I don't think I would start someone out on a 12, so perhaps it might not fill the bill for your needs.

Location: Boise, Idaho | Just bought a Celeb Deluxe for my daughter for Christmas and a nice Monterey by Kaman for her boyfriend. Together they were under $400. They have a nice green Balladeer at GC hear for $499 and I'm sure would take $450 or less. Let me know if you want me to get it for you. There should be plenty of Balladeers and a few Legends for under $500. |

The Martin's under $500 don't live up to the Martin name! |
