Looking for a used guitar. Dings dents and scratches are fine! While there are reasonably priced student guitars available new, I'd rather pay a bit more for a better quality used guitar, and get something that I wouldn't have to trade up from too soon, if ever. (Preferably just add another guitar!) Prefer a Blanca. Open to suggestions but maybe Castillo, Andy Culpepper, Sigurdson...? Within the U.S. would be easiest. Thank you Tom Doh! HH brought up an excellent point below that I forgot to mention. I'd prefer to keep it under $1500 but could stretch that a bit if necessary. And please pm me so it's less work for the moderators.

Tom, what is your price range? That will help people here suggest makers or know if they have a guitar they might sell. For instance, if you're looking to spend $500, that wouldn't buy any of the guitars you mention. $1500 or $2000 might though. If you can go that high, there would probably be some good options for you. I think your approach is right though. Factory guitars are very hit and miss, and mostly miss. A 'well played' guitar from a good maker at a low price, if you could find one, is a better choice. Good luck in your search.

I'm located in the US near DC. I've had a few interesting offers and am leaning toward one that was over my budget (a Castillo). I'm still hoping to find a luthier built player condition guitar for under $1500 with no structural issues. Dings, dents scratches not a problem. This will be my only "bump" so if the thread isn't closed you can assume I'm still looking. Thanks! Tom

Done. Stretched my budget and bought the Andy Culpepper Blanca. Thanks for everyone's offers and guidance! The journey begins.

Best of luck on your journey. You're off to a fine start though.
