I am going to buy a new guitar. I own a hand me down guitar that is crappy, and am looking to upgrade. I want to buy a new 400-500 dollar guitar. I am influenced by Hendrix, Neil Young, Dylan, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc... I want to buy an acoustic guitar. ANyone have any suggestions, and keeping with the price range I listed above? Whats a good maker of guitars?

    play every thing in the price range and above and decide what you want from that. it should feel sound and look good to you.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.
