Hello,

I am a total newbie and am looking for a starter instrument to being learning. I am looking for something that is reliable (since I wouldn't know how to fix it!) and inexpensive.

I have seen some nice looking MSA and Sho-Buds on e-bay but they always seem to end up being a bit too pricey.

So... Can you help?

JC.

There are used steels for sale here all the time.
Just wait and see.
Someone will mail you within a day or two I think.
But if nobody mails then I think it would be best for you to start looking for a used Carter Starter.
I think that there will be a lot of people that will disagree with this choice.
Most of the people up here suggest you'd buy a used Pro model.
But I don't know how much you want to spend on a steel.Most of the time the used Carters go for $500-$700.If you have more to spend then I too would say go for a good Pro model.

The short answer is 'as little as possible'.

But I'm trying to keep this <= $500.

Thanks for the reply,
