Title: Traveling with guitar, need tips...
Post by: YouEnjoyMyReba on December 21, 2011, 10:01:26 AM
So, January 4 I'll be moving to London (from North Carolina) for 6 months for school.  There is no way in hell I'm going 6 months without a guitar, but I am super paranoid about bring my Gibson on a plane, I'd prefer not to do it.  I've got this little vox headphone amp that I'll be bringing with me so I'm thinking I might just buy a cheap guitar (no more than $150) over there or possibly rent one if its possible.  Does anybody have any experience with this?  Suggestions of cheap but decent quality guitars? Thanks for your help

Not totally fitting to our genre of music but Ibanez makes a really good and cheap beginners guitar called the Gio.  I've been teaching lessons for 8 years and these guitars have stayed in good shape way more than the cheap Squires and off brand name guitars that I've seen.
