Acoustic guitars of celebrities

I was playing the DVD of John Mayer's concert two years ago entitled "Where the Light Is" at the Nokia Theater, and I was particularly glued on his guitars. Though I acknowledge Mr. Mayer's superb music, I think it was his guitars that were most fascinating. He changed acoustic guitars every after a song is over. Estimating from those scenes alone, the guy might be the owner of more than a couple hundred of those babies.

The Croatian musician first performed at age 8, to an worldwide audience when she was only 11, and entered the National Musical Academy in Zagreb as the youngest student in the institution's 150-year history.

Veteran guitarists today say that guitars for beginners are a problem. "The strings are too hard to fret," they would say, especially for younger pluckers. Seagull Acoustic guitars are recommended for beginners though, since they are relatively cheaper and also sound well. A more expensive choice for the beginner are the Yamaha F310 Acoustic guitars but are anyway worth it. An intermediate learner can also upgrade to Fender Starcaster Acoustic guitars and Gibson Hummingbird Acoustic electric guitars to join the roster of celebrity users.
