I'm looking at a Cougar 3 x 2 and a Desert Rose 3 x 3, 4 mos. old. Both entry level guitars. The Cougar is triple raise.
Any opinions on a standout in this choice? |

My Opinion:
You will get excellent support from the owner of Desert Rose if you should need anything in the future..Not sure on the other brand..Ron |

Desert Rose for sure, when you wanna move up he'll take the old on back as a
trade-in.
GREAT fella to deal with.[This message was edited by Jack Francis on 19 August 2006 at 03:45 PM.] [This message was edited by Jack Francis on 19 August 2006 at 09:30 PM.] |

The gentleman who built Cougar Guitars, Freeman Cowgar, passed away a few years ago. Ed Naylor took over the parts, then he passed away, so parts would be be a problem. However, the Cougar guitar I played for 3 years was well built, played well, and probably would have lasted many more years without needing any new parts. I have no experience with Desert Rose, but being an almost new guitar, with dealer support available, it may be the best choice. Good Luck, Larry J. |
