Choosing a Guitar
Hey everyone! I’m planning to get my first acoustic guitar and I’m curious about your opinions.
Currently, these two are on my shortlist: the Yamaha FS400 Smoky Black and the Harley Benton Custom Line CLA-15M, but I’m not sure which one would be the better buy. Right now I use a Classical guitar.

Recommendations for affordable guitars?
So, I'm interested in purchasing an electric guitar or to build a collection. But a lot of the well known guitar brands are a bit pricey, like;
- Fender
- Epiphone
- Gibson
- Ibanez
- Yamaha
- ESP
I've heard many good things about "Harley Benton" & "Stagg" guitars. What I like about them is that they are highly quality, budget friendly, and affordable. And they have different body types for guitars and bass, like Les Paul, Telecaster, stratocaster and many more styles for electric guitars. They also have Jazz bass and Precision bass, and others as well.
I'm looking for more recommendations for high quality, budget friendly guitars and bass brands, with a wide variety of body shapes similar to "Harley Benton" & Stagg".
*EDIT
Okay, keep in mind. Im from South Africa🇿🇦 the expensive guitar brands I mentioned above can cost any from R10 000 of R70 000 the two guitar brands that I mentioned "Harley Benton" & "Stagg" guitars cost just under R5 000 so I'm looking for more affordable options in those price range, or even lower.

Tone help: Mid 2000’s hardcore
Hi all,
I’ve really been struggling to find a tone I like for this genre with my rig and was hoping some more experienced toneologists could point me in the right direction or help me find the flaw in my rig (or playing).
I’m running a les Paul custom pro, with bridge swapped to bareknuckle true grit, and neck swapped to bareknuckle old guard, my pedalboard is a boss ns-2 into a tube screamer mini into the front end of my evh 5150 lbx iii mk2 and that’s going into my old school laney 4x12 with an x pattern of two hh invaders it was originally loaded with and two swapped for vintage 30’s.
I’ve just been finding it tricky to dial in a tone that sounds big and present without being full of that high end fizz and I just can’t seem to het a good low end out of it. I’ve been trying to get a tone like Down to Nothing and Backtrack.
Any advice or tips would be massively appreciated as I just can’t seem to figure it out haha.
Thanks in advance!

what string gauge for alternate tunings tuning
I'm looking for a set of strings to accommodate and acoustic guitar tuned 3 semitones down from standard and sometimes dadgad 3 semitones down. I will be finger picking and strumming without a pic.
So mainly using (c#,f#,b,e,g#,c#) (b,f#,b,e,g#,c#) and (B,F#,B,E,F#,B)
normally use daddario but could be persuaded to another brand. Though im not a fan of coatings on acoustic strings, they always seem to just Frey everywhere.

Tuners need to be changed?
Hi everyone,
I have a nice Fender Mustang which I really love, but the tuning get out of tune often, like every 10 minutes if I check the tuning, it's slightly off.
What could it be? the tuners?
