Beginner guitar player.. should I get 3/4 or full size acoustic?
I am in love with this guitar
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)…
But it is 3/4 size.. would it be a bad thing if I played it? would it be hard to transition to full size and/or electric guitar since its not full size? I'm 16 btw.
If you don't think I should get it, what other sites can I get interesting acoustic guitars from? I hate the kinds that are just a boring tan, and maybe with a strip of a darker wood on it. But I don't want something cheesy like Daisy Rock.
Thank you!

I cant see the guitar because of the link but if your 16 then you should start with a full size guitar, im sure it wont be too hard to find one you like.
Like the other guy said the sound of the guitar is more important than the looks. When i first started i only really knew the difference between the classical guitar sound and a acoustic guitar sound (In general). And for your first guitar thats all you really need to know. If you listen to rock than your probably looking for a acoustic guitar or acoustic- electric. All that means is that you can plug your acoustic into a amp to mess with the sound and make it louder.
So i suggests you find out what kind of guitar your looking for, than fall in love with what it looks like.
A little advice, I've heard that guys find it easier to play guitars with cut outs, so you might wanna pick one with one. Gl

Hi there!
As a fellow guitarist and musician... You need to understand it's not the shape or form that matters most but the sound that comes out of it. Eric Clapton had a guitar for years called blackie that was bruised and battered. That guitar now sits in the guitar center in manhattan worth over a few million dollars.
Of course you have to be comfortable with how it looks. But the most important thing is if you like its sound...
and about transitioning to a full size...that wont be to much of a problem. dont forget that your growing with your guitar :)
good luck man and keep on jamming!

Well it depends on what fits you, although there isn't too much of a difference between a 3/4 and a full sized guitar...I personally prefer a 3/4 just because my arms are short. Maybe you should head to a local music store and just check out what size fits you the best :)
