6.25 to ship.....

No shipping costs if you pick the item up in the store.

If your store does not happen to have it in stock, you can still have it shipped to you for about $13 total, still far less than the regular $29.99 or the $25 that an earlier poster paid.

My son was just given a guitar today. Now he can learn how to play it!

Thanks so much for all the positive feedback.

This is still working...In for 2 (one for gifting).

Now I just need a guitar. Any recommendations from someone with real guitar experience? I'm leaning toward Electric Acoustic...
