whats the best acoustic for 100-150$

[boyd98]

grandpa needs a new guitar, not sure what kind his current one is - but very old; says it wont stay in tune.

 

Need to pick him up a new one for xmas; any recommendations on a relatively inexpensive but descent guitar.

 

 

 

TIA,

 

Boyd

but you're only going to find more crap that won't stay in tune if you spend $100....check eBay for Godin acoustics (which A&L is a part of) and see what used ones you can find

Solid spruce top. Second one comes with gigbag for 129 shipped, but doesn't have much time left.

thx for your help - that looks like a good deal, but i need to try and use muscians friend or another reputable sender. I want to order and ship straight to his house; we live far apart.

I bought a nice used Wechter with the 3-pickup system and an Earvana nut on Ebay for just over $100. Kinda ugly but they play and sound great for the price.
