I definitely agree with getting a solid top-t'will be better after a few months of playing too. If you want a really good cheap acoustic try looking at a Washburn D10.

I've had so many acoustics fall by the wayside playing on beaches, at BBQs and general outdoor, largely boozy occassions that I'd suggest getting an Ovation. Polycarbonate will withstand all of that cr@p better than any known piece of timber and if you buy a deep bowl version they're LOUD!! Ideal for for partying! You can pick up a used Ballardier for less than £200.

I found this tanglewood guitar...its a parlour and has a solid top and back but its only around £320...pretty good I think. Because its a parlour with cedar and mahogany, I assume it would do a good job of playing some nice mellowish fingerstyle/ flatpicking..please corretc me if im wrong?

Tanglewood Sundance Pro TW73 Parlour

The thing is, it doesent have a cutaway; something which i could realy do with. However i cant realy find any cheapish acoustics with a cutaway but no electronics...i deffinately dont need a pickup. Also m not after a dreadnaught or jumbo body...anyhting else is worth a look realy.

So do any of you have any suggestions???

Thank you Thank you
