Okay I have been waiting to get a guitar for the past month.
I called Albadie, they are out of acoustic guitars
I went to Virgin, of course they only had the one they have on display like always. so they told me to go Yamaha so I went to Yamaha and the guitar prices were 1200+ and all I want is one decent guitar, it doesnt have to be that expensive, they had one that was 1000 but it was out of stuck.
so I called music corner, no answer.

I need a guitar by next week! since my parents are willing to buy me one for now, and in 2 weeks i will have finals and they won't let buy one if i wanted to its the exams period. or even after I can't they would refuse to get me one because of my grades so I need one AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

any idea?
anything cheaper than 700QR would be perfect!

Thanks ~

if you are still looking, check out this small store named "Sofitel" about 1 Km from Jaidah Bridge going to Souk Area. You can find there a Korean made Acoustic Guitar with pickup which is in good quality.

...

peace out

Although if she wants something cheap and not popular but practical, she can try any local shops around that has less ads or something...less ads means less popular means cheaper prices.

heero_yuy2 the shop i mentioned is the biggest in Doha, i think you didn't see the upper floor, since the ground floor is just the entrance

...and other musical instruments like drum sets, etc. It's probably cheap over there as it's just a small shop. Not a fancy one with ads.

There's also another shop at the corner of a roundabout near souq. It says 'Music Studio' on the yellow signboard. They also sell electric organ sets and stuff.

Hey thanks Dracula and MD, but no I can't ask for the help of one of my relatives, I don't think it's possible. I still don't think it's safe for a girl in my age to arrange to buy from someone off the net. I can't trust anyone just like that.

Salut

One of QL members is a Qatari girl and she wants to buy your guitar.

Please send PM to Magic Dragon or me for checking/buying the guitar.

Thanks

You can ask for help one of your relative.

Magic, can you arrange something?

You can check the guitars(you're an EXPERT)

Thanks for the info, Mandi. I thought of a young guy who wanted a guitar. Everything sounded so male. My fault. But couldn't you then help her? At least the guys who advertized are not "newbies".

MD, Metallica is a 16 year old Qatari girl. She's very wise not to arrange meetings with strangers (except for me and thee, of course.)

Dracula, he thinks QL is unsafe. Is it because of you?

Well, actually you can send them a PM, then meet them, and then by off the road or off the car.

I know that, but I can't just buy stuff from people off the net.

Even if he is a QL member, still it's not safe, I want to be provided with stores I can buy from.

Abdulrehmansajid is a QL member, too, man.

I can't buy a guitar from people off the net that I don't know. It's not safe to be honest.
