Hey Indaba, happy Monday.  Welcome to our weekly shop talking session.  Now, I must admit I've been using this post selfishly from time to time to get recommendations for various instruments and equipment.  This time, however, I promise it will be my last.  I recently made a drunken and, perhaps foolish, choice to trade my acoustic guitar - a very crappy Indiana, whatever that company is - for a swivel TV stand.  It seemed like the right move at the time and don't get me wrong, I love my swiveling TV, but now I miss my acoustic guitar.  I want to get a new one but I'm also not a fantastic guitar player meaning A) I don't need a fantastic guitar and B) I don't deserve a fantastic guitar.  So, here is what I'm asking of you today: Could you guys suggest a decent acoustic guitar for somewhere between $200 and $500?  I like steel strings and fretboards that you can glide over.  So, what say you, Indaba?  Can you help a wanna-be musician out just one more time?

Leave your suggestions in the comments.
