  16. Warren Says:

    Hi Lalit
    The Gb&a guitars are good to begin with. they should start with the range of 2500- 3000

  17. Purvi Says:

    hi!

    i just read the sentence you answered Lalit
    (last one)
    i wanted to know what is Gb&a guitar as i’m also a beginner

  18. Warren Says:

    Hi Purvi,
    Gb&a is a Brand just like Granada or Hobner. The Quality of the guitar is really Good. It’s Value for money.
    Another Good Brand in the Market is Cardinal, The Rates begin from 3000 Onwards But very Good Guitars. Let me know if your Guys Require Some.
    Thanks

    tell me the designs of guitars vary which is good for playing ….
    and i like sound of a nylon guitar….
    can i start with a nylon guitar…what is the difference? please reply soon…

  20. Warren Says:

    Hi Aman,
    firstly, it’s great to see your passion for music and to learn guitar.”Just Go for it”.As you are a beginner I would recmend you begin with an Acoustic guitar first (Normal Guitar).then when you are good at it for a Classical guitar style.the difference between them(Acoustic guitar and Classical Guitar), is the style of playing.In fast if you want me to get a guitar for you, pls let me know as soon as possible.

    Hi Warren,

    I am mostly into Metal music and currently looking for a guitar with active EMG’s… ( I love their sound) … I want to buy Ibanez ART series guitar but those are not available in any shops I know. Can you help import those ??

  33. Abhinav Says:

    Subscribed to the thread now.

  34. Shilz Says:

    hi guys
    would be gr8 if u could suggest me with some outlets to buy a gb&a/givson guitars in pune and good guitar classes as well please..
    i am looking towards getting asap…

    chrs!
    Shils

  35. Abhinav Says:

    Hi Shilz,

    You can get gb&a and givsom guitars from Clover centre basement (MG Road) .. there are two shops there or try the musical mart on E-street.

  36. Warren Says:

    Yes that’s right Abhinav or else who can ask SEGNO to delivery to Pune and rate will definately be cheaper !!!!!

  37. Shilz Says:

    thanks abhinav n warren..
    whats the price range for a beginners level acstc guitar.. how much cheaper is it from mumbai..whr in mumbai..i could ask my frnd to get it4 me if it makes so much of a difference… ans any tips on what should i look4 while buying one..
    chrs!
    S

  38. Abhinav Says:

    Well the price range depends on how much money do you have?? You can find a givson acoustic for 2-2.5k. But I would suggest you to start with Granada or an Ibanez acoustic which will come for 4-5k.

    There is not much of a difference in prices anywhere in India. If you can get something from USA .. then that’s a different story … :)

    Inquire prices at 2-3 places before buying to confirm that the shopkeeper is not making a fool out of you and always try to get some freebies like a good strap and gauged picks with the guitar.

  39. mukesh Says:

    i am looking for epiphone les paul guitar series especially epiphone les paul 100, Epiphone les paul standard and custom etc. do you have these guitars? or please let me me know where it is available.

  40. akshay Says:

    Guys wherever u go to buy a Guitar or any musical instrument bt NEVER go to AAWAZ (the one in Clover centr basement) The owner makes fraud on customers..

    he is a born cheater.. even he himself accepts it in front of customers..

    never ever go to him.. i hv 3 bad (act worst) experience of him..

  41. Abhinav Says:

    I also agree with Akshay on the Aawaz shop issue… Only a few days ago my friend bought a Yamaha synth from there. When he came back, he was surprised to see no product id to register his synth on the net with Yamaha. When we went back to him, he said you bought it without the formal bill and we needed to give him extra 2500 rupees for the serial number. We had no option but to buy it otherwise we would not even have been eligible for warranty..

    Don’t go to Aawaz .. that guy is cheat ..

  42. Warren Says:

    Hi Guys,
    Be carefull of such shop in Pune, There are loads of them in and around Pune, Infact you will find this problem every where u Go. Anyways, for all who still do not know Segno is the Authorised Dealers for Yamaha and other. So do not hassitate to Buy stuff from Us.We Get it delivered to your door step. Yes u Heard Right.

  44. Abhinav Says:

    I bought the same guitar for 5400/- .. although it was with a tuner and a pickup.. don’t know how much it is without them. However I feel that GB&A guitars are a little hard to fret and barre (which is good in a way as it develops your finger muscles) but the sound of the guitar is really nice and warm .. worth 5400 I paid ..

  45. Warren Says:

    Hi Aman,

    It’s a Great deal where r u buying it from ?????. Check if they are giving u after Sales Service. which is important.

    Let me know if i can help in anyway

    With Regards
    Warren

  46. Aks Says:

    I’m plannin to buy a guitar..i dunno how to play it yet..from d conversations above i feel a “jumbo gb&a” is perfect…

    wats difference between this and a Granada or an Ibanez acoustic ???

    plz reply.

  47. Abhinav Says:

    I feel GB&A are harder to fret as compared to Ibanez or Yamaha acoustic ….. Don’t know about Granada though . .. never played one…

    A GB&A would really get your fingers strong .. but might feel more difficult in the starting ..

  48. Warren Says:

    Hi Abhinav,
    Gb&a are Good guitar’s, probly the strings used are Hard,and if yuo use lighter strings it should solve the problem, on the other hand, Granada, Yamaha,Cardinal are good guitars as well.

  49. Aks Says:

    So is it like they r jst different brands but no basic difference??? d only difference is tat a gb&a is harder to fret ????

    Plz help me out…

  50. ricky Says:

    For a beginner I would recommend Signature or a gb&a and go for a steel string guitar. If you get used to nylon strings you will probably feel difficult to play the steel string later.!

  51. harsh Says:

    Hello Warren,

    I am planning to buy les paul. can you provide that?

  67. Abhinav Says:

    Well, if you don’t have a budget go for a “Gibson Les Paul Studio” (slash from GnR plays it) … or a “Fender Stratocaster” (both Bryan Adams and Eric Clapton love it)….
    Each will cost you around 1.5 to 2 lakh rupees in India .. plan early as they have to be ordered and takes time ..

  68. Warren Says:

    Hi

    Well, if u can afford that kind of a guitar,go for it !!!!

    Hi,

    Well I am planing to buy a new classical guitar, can I know which is good. My budget is around 6000 Max.

  71. tas Says:

    hey.. i checked on the guitars u suggested… m still very confused.. there are so many options to choose from..n yeah if i cud afford those guitars i wud have bought it..but lets talk somethngs basic…i can spend around 15000 to 20000grands.. dats all i got right now..

  72. Abhinav Says:

    Hey Warren,

    One of my friend is looking for a guitar with EMG 81/85 configuration.
    which is the cheapest guitar to offer those pick-ups (in the good brands). I know of Cort EVL Z6 (46K) and LTD EC 400QM (54K) .. is there any guitar with those EMG’s within 30k .. or nearer ..

  73. tas Says:

    hey abhinav..

    suggest me something…

  74. Abhinav Says:

    Hi Tas,

    I don’t know what your boyfriend will like but based on my love for the les paul styled guitars .. i can suggest you look Greg Bennett AV3/AV6 (they are available at Furtados) .. Also take a look at Cort EVL Z4 ..

    PS: If your boyfriend doesn’t have an electric yet . don’t forget to consider a good practice amp also in your budget .. (a decent one will cost around 5-6k)..

  75. tas Says:

    hey abhinav…
    my guy wants a electric guitar..i donno his requirements… i need to dig out things from him before buying one… as planning to gift it to him its a suprise so its kinda tricky.. u suggest a electric one??

  76. tas Says:

    will get back to u once i find out excalty wat knida guitar he wants…

  77. tas Says:

    will get back to u once i find out what kinda guitar he wants…

  78. sujay Says:

    does any one know….where i could get a jackson warrior….???

  79. Abhinav Says:

    @tas: all the guitars I suggested are electric ones … so also buy a amplifier (speaker for the guitar) if you go for electric …

    @sujay: jackson’s are hard to find in india .. but bajaao.com offers it. check out the link http://www.bajaao.com/jackson-m-33.html
    also check furtados at ABC farms .. they have some kind of arrangement with bajaao.com .. so if bajaao offers it .. they must be doing it too .. or they can get it for you .. however cost of furtados are higher than what you get at the site .. but with ordering on site … you lose the opportunity to check the guitar yourself before buying it … (which is quite important i think) ..

  80. tas Says:

    hey abhinav…
    i find the Greg Bennett AV6 an interesting pick..i think i mite go for it..will check it out at furtados.. wat wud be the price range?? and yeah i will buy the amp also.. suggest me a good one..

  81. tas Says:

    hey warrem….
    i think a Greg Bennett AV6 would be a good option… let me know wat u think bout this one.. and let me also know the price range..

  82. Abhinav Says:

    Greg Bennett AV6 should come for around 20-21k (do check out some youtube.com reviews of the guitar)…. for amplifier I suggest room amp …some of my picks would be
    1) Marshall 15CDR ..with distortion and reverb(3500)
    2) Roland cube 15X .. with distortion and overdrive..(5500)
    3) Roland micro cube . many built in effects.. (6000)

  83. tas Says:

    thank you..i wud get back to you once i finalize everything… do keep me posted..

  84. Mit Says:

    I need a guitar which will not cost more than 2000-2500 can i get one in that budget………..

  85. Abhinav Says:

    Hi Mit,

    If you are starting to play, i suggest increasing your budget a little and going for a granada acoustic which should cost around 4000..

    if you stiff with your budget then go for a Givson acoustic (Jumbo) .. you can get a decent one in around 2500-3000 ..

  86. Warren Says:

    Hi Mit,,,
    Gb&a Staring range would cost u around 2,500 – 3,000….

  87. Abraham Says:

    Hey Warren and Abhinav,

    This forum is really a good one.. thanks to you both. It must really help so many ppl..

    I reside in Pune. Im planning to buy a guitar in another month. My budget is Rs. 6000
    I have some exposure to music as im also an amateur keyboard player.just learning.

    I wanna start learning the Guitar as well now that i have planned to devote time everyday to pursue my hobby. ..

    Would you please refer me a good brand and a good store to buy one from.. I have no idea regarding which model i could buy for that price. Can i also get a pickup fitted for amplifying in an acoustic??

    thanks,
    Abraham

  88. Abhinav Says:

    Hi Abraham,

    Well, starting with a guitar will be quite easy for you since you already play keyboards and would be knowing the chords and scales.

    For the guitar part, going with your budget I would suggest
    1) Yamaha acoustic (around 7000) .. available at Furtados ..
    2) Ibanez acoustic (around 6000) … I saw one at Aawaz in clover centre basement (Furtados don’t have Ibanez and I don’t know why)

    Pick-ups for acoustic are available in the market but I don’t think that will be recommended. If you want an acoustic with a pick-up fitted already then in your budget check out GB&A, Pluto and Granada guitars …

  89. akaey Says:

    Thanks guys, this thread is turning out very good.

    Warren, where are you in Pune? I want a Gb&a mid size one. I guess I better call you. Will do so soon.

    crazy kittu,
    chinnari_ponnari_kittaih@yahoo.com

  93. Abhinav Says:

    Well kittu, you just sound like me when I started. The best thing you can do is

    1) get an electric, look out for GB&A les paul guitar. It can come for around 7500-8000.

    2) Plug it in your PC and use the speakers you have.

    3) Download some effects software (FXBox or something) and put some distortion on.

    4)And you will feel like a rockstarrrrr … this is sure to give you a headstart…

    5) Start learning to play ..step by step …

  94. Kittu Says:

    Hey Abhinav,

    You have just added some fuel for my excitement :D thxs for that..

    I want to make this as my long term hobby. I want my axe to go parallelox/entice me for playing too.so,I wish to catch some rock band/ guitar rocker live in pune (Is this possible option?).

    cheers,
    Kittu.

  95. Abhinav Says:

    If you wish to see rock bands performing live than there are some options available in pune ..

  97. Warren Says:

    Congrats Aman, It’s really important to learn guitar from a teacher than the net… but if there’s no teacher available.net should be ok… Check out for some real good teacher who either play in bands, or teacher music some where.

    With Regards

  99. Abraham Says:

    Hey Abhinav,

    Thanks for your advice.. I went to Furtado the other day and walked out with a Granada Dreadnought. A real good one with a great finish..
    thanks a lot for your help.

    Regards,
    Abraham

  100. Abhinav Says:

    Congrats on your new guitar … how much did you buy it for ???

  101. amar Says:

    Hi there,
    know where i can get a Schecter Damien 6 FR guitar in PUne?
    I’d like to try it out once before i buy it… am also looking at Ibanez RG 370 as a comparison.
    Do let me know if you have any info.
    Furtados had nothing yesterday, just cheap lame old IbZ Gios… and some more cheap ESPs.
    hope to hear better news here…

    Amar.

  102. Abraham Says:

    @Abhinav:

    I got the Granada Dreadnought for Rs.4350. A good deal i guess.. The other guitars there were all very high end ones at that time..taylor,yamaha,then some nylon strings,the small size ones etc.
    So this was the only jumbo, decent one for a beginner like me.. Rest, i dunno why, were all the high end ones ranging around 8000+

    Its been around 20 days now and i have progressed pretty decently learning the major chords and usually finger exercises..internet tutorials.but not much of guidance yet.

    Any idea how much a good metronome and a tuner would cost at furtado. Feeling the need to have one now!! :-)

    Regards,
    Abraham

  103. Abhinav Says:

    Don’t know about the metronome but a tuner costs around 800-900 at Furtados. If you have a mic then you can install guitar FX box on your PC and use it for tuning the guitar. (quite accurate)
    Also there are some good metronome softwares available on the net. However, you can’t use them if you are not in front of your PC.

  104. Varun Says:

    Hey Guys,

    Some real good advises, thanks.

    I’m a left handed person and need left handed acoustic guitar. Budget would be around 7000/-. I will prefer a left handed guitar than converting a right handed one by changing strings – not sure if that’s going to be some big deal. Currently have a “converted” right handed Pluto – looking for replacement now.

    I’m a beginner, been playing for a while on acoustic guitar. I’m looking to buy my first electric guitar…could you suggest a decent guitar with an amp and pedal thrown in? Budget is around 15-16k. Should i go in for one of those starter packs? I’ve heard they’re not very good though…

  112. amol Says:

    @ sanjay … u can go for any pluto or grenada guitars(range-3500-4500) … plz dnt go for kolkota made guitars like hobner ,hobmer etc …

  113. amol Says:

  114. A.j Says:

    Does anyone sell effect pedals in pune or bombay??? HELP

  115. imz Says:

    Furtados is a very good shop but quiet expensive. Awaaz in clover center sucks… The Owner and the sales girl are really mannerless. The sales girl is behaves really like a whore…

  116. Abhinav Says:

    You also seem to be quiet cheated by awaaz … what happened imz?
    well musical mart on E-street is a good shop and not expensive.

  117. Abraham Says:

    @Abhinav:

    Hey dude.. I got the metronome and tuner.

    Tuner: Granada: Rs.500
    Metronome: Korg: Rs.1575

    Both the pieces are really good.Got them from Furtados.The tuner is one which i can clip onto my headstock.pretty cool. The metronome has also helped me greatly in practice in 2 days itself.

    But there s one thing for sure. this Furtados is an Expensive place (as everybody says). The Korg m’nome had 2price stickers pasted one above d other. There s a difference of 500 bucks in the two of them. Moreover i could not risk buying anything from awaaz(another cheat ppl say).

    And unlike u told me before this time i saw few Ibanez guitars there.

    Learning the instrument on my own yet. Its 2months now. :-)
    pretty decent but would love somebody to check my technique.

    Abraham.

    Hey guys wassup….

    need help I’m a beginner…
    Budget 7000
    Also lemme know the shop…
    U guys got a great thing going….
    May the force be wid U

  119. psychO Says:

    hey where’s the audience…….

  120. Abhinav Says:

    Hi Psycho,

    Well Gibson’s are just too expensive. You must be talking about GiVson’s which are not very good guitars.
    With your budget you can go for Yamaha acoustic at Furtados. Otherwise go for Granada, GB&A or Pluto acoustic with in-built tuner in your budget. There is a shop in clover centre basement (other than Aaawaz), one on MG road basement somewhere, there is musical mart on estreet. They are quite close to each other so try all before buying.

    Keep rocking !!!!!!!!

  121. psychO Says:

    Nope, GiVson sUcks…meant giBson…
    hey which yamaha models do i go in for steel string or classic…
    any possible way to get a deep purple colour guitar….
    i have shortlisted 3 yamaha ones….c40,c70,f310…
    welcome to reviews and suggestions….
    thanks abhinav

  122. Mansi Says:

    Hi Warren/Abhinav
    Thanks for the great information posted here.I am a beginner too and would like to buy something decent within budget of 4k.(upto 3500 will be cool).Pls let me know whether givson/granada acoustic guitar is better or cardinal or a signature for a total beginner?
    Please reply asap
    Thanks
    Mansi

  123. Garima Says:

    Hi Guys,

    Is Granada better than gb&a because both of them cost pretty much the same and im a beginner, im kinda confused. BTW guys, must say that this forum helped us a great deal…keep goin !!

  124. shravan Says:

    hey every1,

    im a beginner, but i intend to buy a good guitar from B.C. rich
    maybe revenge warlock, KKV, or celtic virgo
    cant seem to find a good store for them
    and bajaao prices are way too much compared to US prices
    any suggestions?

  125. Abhinav Says:

    Call all the music shops in Pune (also Mumbai) and find out if they can get it for you. Bajaao.com prices are very reasonable .. if you compare the prices of local shops and bajaao.comb (for products that are available generally), bajaao is quite cheaper then stores. Do not compare Indian and American prices.

    If some relative of yours is coming from US or Singapore, then try to get it through them. Otherwise try this site ‘www.20north.com’. I do not know their credibility as I never ordered anything from them.

    Good luck.
    BTW.. I would suggest to start with a cheaper guitar (hey, but if you have enough money . who cares)

  126. shravan Says:

    thanks for the reply abhinav
    i stay in surat, i was going down the road some where near VT station and i saw this music store with BC rich guitars and i made up my mind to buy them wateve it takes :P
    now if i go for cheaper guitars its just gonna hurt my enthusiasm to learn it
    so i guess ill stick to buying one of those

    i saw a site rajmusicals selling some guitars at cheaper price than bajaao but they didnt have lot of variety.
    ill take ur word that bajaao is cheaper than stores since i dont know wen next i can come down to mumbai.

    20 north has good basic prices but after adding shipping and duty taxes the prices get doubled so its a bad deal really

    oh well i was just poking my luck to find anything worthwhile
    i guess i gotta wait for some relative to come down to india :D

  127. varghese Says:

  129. shravan Says:

    abhinav umad? ^^

  130. Abhinav Says:

    Why did you say that? Its a perfectly alright guitar spec. Do you even play or know about guitars?

    Well, I just wanted to know the credibility of the guy posting about some custom shop. If he knows about the specs then probably he’s good and I can try him out.

  131. Abhinav Says:

    Check out ESP custom shop website if you want to know how the specifications of custom guitars are given.

  132. aubin Says:

    where will i get only a electric guitar neck. and how much will it cost about.
    pls rep
    thanks…

  133. shravan Says:

    yep i know its “perfectly alright spec” and no i dont know a lot about guitars

    it was just a troll comment pointing out the awesomeness of the spec u gave out
    oh well i guess im out of place with my sense of humour

  134. amol Says:

    @ manasi

    u can go for any guitars like grenada,pluto,gc coz its bridge is drectly attached to the body of guitar due to which u get a lively n soft tone which u cant get in anyof the givson ,hobners(indian made)… to purchase, musical mart can b a bettr option on east street buh make a survey in nearby shops try aawaz its neighbour music palace

  135. Abhinav Says:

    Hi..

    I bought an acoustic guitar named gb&a written in running english script format from Navdikar Musicals Kothrud Pune.

    Its an excellent instrument plays very well if strummed to higher degrees and virtually no additional speaker is reqd as the sound could b heard in our building 4th floor also!!! when I play on my 1st flr house.

    Navdikar’s have good collection of guitar & overall musical instruments.

    This is just for info for all aspirants / new music instruments buyers and music lovers… Prof Viraj Atre

    hey dudes cn ya xplain which guitar wud b the most soft to touch n play,, coz m tired of using those hollows n spanis,,
    Reply soon

  151. Abhinav Says:

    Buy an electric with Jumbo frets, thin neck and use skinny top, bottom heavy strings. It will be pretty soft to play on that. However, strings will become very touch sensitive and you will have to play accurate to sound right..
