I'm beginning to hear the reasons people like them. But I'm not likely to have the dosh any decade soon. So, if I want that sound, what;s the best way to do it?
Any info/recommendatrions received with interest. Thanks

Go and find old Chic records and learn these... You won't be able to do it with out using a good two finger technique.
It will take a lot of time.
Practice drumming with two all the time. Do it when driving on the steering wheel etc etc..

I do this, drives my better half mad
I'm hoping it will settle with tuning
I don't want to spend a fortune as it's likely a flash in the pan - if she sticks at it we will get her something better
Went to pmt in brum and bought a linden 3/4 classical as it had a fairly narrow board, sadly they only had blue
Won't stay in tune - new strings needed perhaps
I do have one tip - pay attention to your timing when using two. I found I drop into swing when starting with index, but I'm solid if I start with middle.

Before buying a Alesis SR16 I used to use Wikiloops - free and you get to choose which instruments play on the track. User friendly too.

Not the easiest to program in my humble opinion
When my ex-teenager was an eleven year old, he and his chum confidently asserted that beat matching as a dj was "harder than playing a guitar well"
They talk utter rubbish (most of the time) I wouldn't worry too much. Some will find the righteous path of bass

My suggestion would be to get a folk-style guitar - these are full scale but with a smaller body. Fender do a basic one at around the £100 mark : [url="http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/fender-cf-60-folk-acoustic-guitar-natural"]http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/fender-cf-60-folk-acoustic-guitar-natural[/url]

That's an interesting thought, thanks
It's got to be easy to play
No, I'm not attempting to trade in my kids for a nice jazz bass
Can anyone who has had a seven year old (medium size) take up guitar at school advise whether it should be nylon, steel or other , and what size body I should look for ?
Thanks
