Hello, I was wondering where it is possible to get custom made guitars for people with large hands?

Funny you asked that question, and I will give you an honest answer. My brother is 6 ft 8 inches tall and wears a size 16 boot so he goes to Mexico and has custom boots made for less than he could dream of getting regular boots in the States. I go over there often and you could get a guiter made for your dad at a reasonable cost. If you are unable to go to mexico ,I can check it out for you and let you know who to contact,   B. Glick

Check out the Daisy Rock line of guitars. They're generally built on a little bit smaller scale (for smaller hands), though they're not small enough to be considered a child's guitar. They come in a ton of models and colors, and some of the money from some of the models go to breast cancer research.\n\nAnd even though they're a "girl's" guitar, they're awesome. They feel good, play easy and sound great.\n\n\n\nEDIT: The only reason I point out Daisy Rock is because you felt the need to mention "guitars for girls". The people below who've mentioned checking out all guitars are completely correct - any guitar that you like is the "right" guitar for you. Some tend to have thinner necks, some have fatter necks, some weigh more, some are more expensive, etc... Just see what you like. \n\nAnd just for the record, Daisy Rock doesn't make "crap"...

You can try a music store.....one that sells musical instruments.  Most of the time they'll sell sheet music too.  If they don't have it in stock, then they may be able to order it for you.  Also, you can try Amazon.com .   Good luck

Guitar Center is great for all my musical needs.  Prices are good too - you can bargain.  They have a few locations, including Rockville, Fairfax, and Towson.

Actually,you could do like Hendrix did with his right handed Stratocaster guitar and just flip your guitar around like you hold it (which would technically be upside down),and restring the strings so that your fat "E" is on top ! EADGB  This may work ,till you can get a lefty .Your knobs may be at the top of guitar now ,but you should still be able to jam ! :o)

I agree with the above answer. Go to the music store and play some guitars by Fender, Gibson, and Ibanez that cost more than what you can afford. When you find what you like, write down the model name and number and go to eBay or a pawnshop and get it for the price you can afford to pay. I would keep about $60 in reserve so you can take it to your local instrument repair shop to have it set up (usually about $30) and re-stringed (about another $30 if you get good strings).

See what they go for on E-Bay.......you might  want to try a old Hammond  (the ones with tone generators). Look in the papers Ive got keyboards for free, If you can haul it away they usually say, you can have  it.

I think you probably want to stick with a recognized name.\nNot necessarily a Gibson or Fender, but someone who copies their designs for less money like Epiphone.\n\nI'd go to a guitar store, and pick up and play a selection of models.  If you can find an inexpensive one you like, great.  If you like something expensive like a Gibson Les Paul, go to a seller like http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ or similar and see what they have that's similar, but much less expensive.

get to an independant music shop and play til you find one that feels right for you-yamaha pacifica series are good and tanglewoods are affordable-if you cant play at all then buy a fender sqire series-cheap and versatile and not too much of an investment if you aint feelin the rock!with all guitars you will need a pedal to get those sounds-no guitars come with it built in-if you want to do it pc based then get a line 6 gear box-millions of ace sounds and comes complete with a recording studio to show off your efforts to your mates/family etc-about £130 but essential purchase-also- practice practice practice-theres no substitute for it unless you have a hitherto undiscovered god like genius on the geeetar-best of luck and keep on rockin brother
