Hey guys,

 

My only knowledge only really covers electric guitars and amps, I know very little about acoustic guitars. I have had a fairly cheap Tanglewood TFCS electro-acoustic since not long after I started playing. Now I want to get a nice one.

 

My current guitar is too dull and thin sounding to my ears. I want something with a lot of warmth and chunkyness. The main reason mine lacks bass though is because it is thin bodied. It is an electro-acoustic and it cost about

Don't know whereabouts you live in London, ofcourse you have all the shops at Denmark street, but they're overcrowded with people and guitars. However I was at "the house of guitars"on brune street near Liverpool street station about a month ago or so and they had some fine lakewood guitars, which I believe weren't too expensive considering they all solid wood handcrafted guitars (I believe they were around the 500 sterling pricetag).

I'd look into that Lakewood maybe but in an OM Orchestra Model with a 1-3/4" nut width. That would be great for almost any person, any style. Slightly smaller body that a huge dread but larger than a 00. Just one of the best guitar designs ever. I am sure Lakewood makes a good OM. Or many other brands. Solid wood, lifetime warranty and the sound I like. Thats a good start. Also take your time and you will do better.
