Guitar Buying Guide
* How to buy a perfect guitar for you?
Consider few things in mind before buying a guitar:
- Budget - First of all make a proper budget that how much you want to spend on guitar as after that you might have to buy some accessories with it. It also depends on the level of your music.
- Level - So are you a complete beginner, intermediate or a pro. This is also one of the main factor before buying a guitar. If you are a beginner than start with basic range guitar which are durable and tough Yamaha f310 is one of the best option available but if you budget is little low no worries we have variety of other options too.
- Maintenance - Now this is what you really have to think about if you are able to maintain you guitar well then go with western guitars which are generally a little bit high maintenance guitar and if you are a rough and tough type of guy then go with Indian guitars which are generally low maintenance and more durable, I think you get my point western need more maintenance and Indian need less maintenance.
- Music Preference - So are you a heavy metal, edm's, old school fan then buy an Electric guitar and if you are a soft, love, jolly and all fan then buy acoustic or semi-acoustic guitar.
- Size - There are so many sizes available never buy the biggest size if you are not able to play it size depends on you age if you are a fully grown adult then you might buy the full size which is 44 inches but if you are a child then buy smaller size but try to buy one size upper so that you will be able to play guitar of bigger size when you grow up I hope you get my point.
* In addition to this:

- Check the guitar carefully near the neck of the guitar if there is any cracks or bends.
- Neck of the guitar should be properly aligned to the body of the guitar.
- Check the gap between strings and the fretboard there should be a proper gap but not much to check this place a capo on 9th or 10th fret and insert a plectrum between strings and fretboard in 4 to 6 fret if plectrum is struck between it then it's a good guitar and if not tell the shopkeeper to lower the height of string which can be done by the truss rod but don't operate it personally if you are a beginner.
- Check the smoothness of the fretboard it should be smooth while sliding your fingers in it.
- Check the tuning pegs if they are working properly.
