If he is a good guitar player, get him a 12 string Accoustic Yamaha guitar... after that run from him very far...We dont want those stories of ' a friend of mine but a friend a guitar...' I Think Therefore I Am

Wendz, get a trained music teacher and go with him/her to a music shop for guidance. They will be able to tell which is made in china etc.... will also explain to you which one has what features for you to be able to decide. Also if the music shops realize they are selling to a "lay person", you are likely to pay more. Happy shopping. Lord, thank you!

Look for a brand called "Mitello" from Japan...fairly good sound quality, decent wood (wood is EVERYTHING with a guitar - I think mine is rosewood and something else). Avoid some Chinese ones, sometimes the neck is rather broad and the frets not very even. Kshs 8-12k

Speaking of guitars, where can one take guitar playing lessons? Cost? Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Check a music shop in Soin Arcade, Westlands - Ground floor. Can't quite recall the name. Good pricing. Got my Yamaha box from there 4 yrs ago at 6,500/=.. at the time rates for the same in town were about 10K on average.
Lakini mambo ya kuhustle slowed me down, the guitar has become more of a trophy hapo kwa nyumba.. :)
