    howdee,

    I'm thinking of plumping for a fender fm62se semi acoustic/electro mando, but at around €600 it's not a decision I am making lightly.
    I've tried it a few times, like it, but haven't much to compare it to at the moment.....
    would I be better getting a half decent acoustic one and getting a pickup put in it?

    McBrides do one and so do Epiphone. Checkout Localmusic.ie for all the details.

    Probably not worth the bother & it may be difficult to sell it later on.
