When I was about 13 I started to learn to play the guitar (because girls). I was very lucky my dad had an old beat up Squire Stratocasters that I could start to practice on but fairly soon it became obvious to my parents that I wanted my own (acoustic) guitar. For me it was more obvious that I needed this new guitar but that’s by the by. So, for my 14 birthday my parents gave my an acoustic guitar.
It wasn’t the fanciest, now most expensive. It had no electronics to be amplified and I suspect its price tag was among the lowest in most stores. However, I have kept this guitar with me to this day, I regularly get compliments on how nice it is from people with guitars worth thousands of dollars and, while I’m sure there guitars are technically better and would be better to play with, I don’t feel I need a better guitar or a need to upgrade.
