I have bought and sold numerous guitars of my own, so even before my extensive research for this review, I was familiar with most of the final candidates for the best beginnerвЂ™s instrument. Whether shopping for myself, a student or for random people in need of advice at a music store, IвЂ™ve gained an understanding of acoustic guitar options for players of all levels. Throughout my time as a guitarist and guitar instructor, IвЂ™ve had the pleasure of playing hundreds of different guitars. So letвЂ™s begin! How we selected finalists to test

I believe that a guitar can grow to be a valuable companion in life, and I cannot stress enough the importance of picking a good one. IвЂ™ve always said that thereвЂ™s no greater joy in my life than setting someone up with a guitar that they love. Throughout my 13 years playing the guitar and five years as an instructor for Mobile Music Teacher, IвЂ™ve gained a lot of firsthand experience with beginner acoustic guitars as both a student and a teacher. IвЂ™m a guitar instructor, recording artist and guitar nerd in San Diego, California.
