• Guitar case... In order to save the instrument during transportation and not endanger it, you need to buy a cover.

There are a few things to keep in mind.

• Choosing a guitar is necessary not only for the quality of materials and assembly, but also for your liking. If you want a loud and loud instrument, then an acoustic guitar of the dreadnought type is perfect. If you like a quieter and more striking style, then the classical guitar will do.
• What matters is the price of the product. If the budget allows, then it is not worth buying a cheap guitar. It is best to buy a tool in the middle price range. Such purchases are not the most frequent, and beginners, as a rule, do not always know the rules for caring for an instrument and its features. Breakage from unfavorable temperature conditions or poor quality may occur.
• The brand should also be taken into account when buying a new instrument. Many modern companies make good quality copies and analogues of models of famous brands.
• Be sure to pay attention to the material of manufacture of the tool. The upper part, made of spruce, gives the music a clear, sonorous sound. Cedar, on the other hand, creates a more dull and resonant. The rosewood sides and back add viscosity to the sound, while the mahogany makes the instrument sing melodic and soft. Maple works well with metal strings.
• And, of course, you should like the instrument, lie well in your hands and hold the tuning.
