Many times your first guitar will be an acoustic guitar. This used to be called a folk guitar. However if you prefer electric, by all means start with an electric. I personally always loved the sound of an acoustic and that was my first guitar.
How much do i need to spend? Thats a tricky question, but let me explain a few things. Many acoustic guitars these days are made of composite woods, like plywood. These are usually guitars that are $400 or less. A solid wood guitar will cost significantly more. Does it make a difference ? Yes, without a doubt. If you just want to strum a guitar and sing along, a composite guitar will probably do fine. If however, like me, you always loved the sound of a good acoustic gutiar and strings, you might want to save up for a solid wood guitar. I can always hear the difference.
Some well known composite guitars include Takamine, Yamaha and many others. Solid wood guitars are made by companies like Taylor, Stonebridge and many others.
How do you choose one guitar over another? You audition them at your local music store. You will know when it clicks. Plan on playing the guitar in the shop for at least a half hour. When you find the right one, youll know. Of course you should also pick out a strong case.
After you have your first guitar, the next step is learning to play.In this day and age, the best way to learn to play the guitar is through online or software . There are many to choose from depending on which direction you think you will take. Do you like lead solos best,or are you more interested in writing songs? Whichever is more important, surely that is the way to go.
These guitar software programs teach you well and teach you fast. I just had a friend that decided to play and i was shocked that she learned so much in just a few weeks.
One thing is for sure, Im sure youll never regret buying your guitar. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.
