                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I'm not an acoustic guy, but it has been my experience that budget acoustics aren't quite as servicable as budget electrics but you can get something playable for cheap.  Not that they aren't in an electric, but I think craftsmanship and materials are important in an acoustic.  That said I own a Rouge resonator that sells for under $200.   :lol:   My only other acoustic instrument though is a $400 guitar.  I pick up budget acoustics in the music stores and they dont seem to play well to me.  Everytime I get one that speaks to me the price tag says put me down!   :mrgreen:]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I bought an Epiphone(Chinese Gibson) PRE-4 Acoustic/Electric pack that came with a Gig Bag, Amp, Picks, extra strings, etc for around $200, I actually quite like the Epiphone although in my opinion (and this could be the way I play) the high E strings rings out a bit too much when I play.  <br><br>The important thing is that the thing stays in tune for quite a while, the tuning pegs work well, and I've not really needed an adjustment after about 9 months of playing.<br><br>Good luck in your hunt!]]></content:encoded>
