Guitar or amp purchase advice for mom

turbomama · 12-07-2009, 02:28 AM

thanks for all the advice. i am saving up and still deciding what to do. i agree not to buy JUST what the bazz instructor wants, but i would hate to buy a guitar that wont sound good with the jazz group either. it sounds like the amp can take care of that.
i think maybe another hour spent at guitar center with son might be smart. he can try the semi-hollows, hollows and solid. will also look into artcores. thanks so much guys!

If its the Vox amp, it actually can handle some really nice jazz sounds, you'll have no trouble.
