Thinking about getting my 9yr son his own cornet, he is disabled and receives a grant of around £500 per yr. Would be looking to buy new. Can anyone recommend a good learners/ intermediate cornet for around this price?

I had a Yamaha YCR2330 when I first started out. Beautiful instrument! Comes with a free 5 Year warranty from normans.co.uk and if you buy it through your school/music service you can purchase without paying the VAT. Just as good really as my Yamaha Neo which is 5 times the price! I moved onto the YCR4330 & tried the YCR6330 but to be honest there wasn't much difference to justify the price change.

I'm looking at buying a guitar for my 14 years old son. Does anyone have any recommendations? For what or where to buy it! He wants an acoustic guitar.

I'd strongly suggest looking at Normans Musical Instruments (http://www.normans.co.uk). I've used them before in the past and they are very good. And you can chat to them for any help and advice. Depending on his size and skill, you could start with something like a 3/4 size like this one: http://www.normans.co.uk/p-6160-rocket-34-dreadnought-acoustic-guitar-natural.aspx
