I know I look like a cheapskate, but remember I have 3 kids to feed everyday, and they all want something significant every month or so, if you add up, that is a lot of money.

I called several shops this morning for an approximation on how much it would cost to rent a 3 3/4 guitar, it ranges between 20$ to 30$ dollars a month. Let's say we rent the one at 20$, after only 6 months, I have paid 120$. Plus the guitar lessons, as you said, I am better off buying used.

My son is 57 inches tall (145cm). He is on the right end in the picture below:

As you can see, he as long harms and fingers for it, no doubt about it. I guess it’s a question of going out there and let the kid try those guitars, and stop being a cheapskate as Neal said.
I am confident that he will like it, after all it's him who approach me, I never said nothing to him to play guitar, it could be a good sign.:hmm:
