Thanks guys :) as for the brand thing, it's not that easy to ask for a particular guitar brand here (I'm from Egypt by the way)...you just have to search for a good guitar until you find one. This is maily because people who play musical instruments, either for fun - like me - or professionally, are very few. But I completely agree with mc9mm that quality must be the first priority, because my cheap old guitar sounds really horrible :) Thanks again ...:)
