it depends on the … it depends on the style your going for, if your going for a metal genre of playing, i suggest an electric – specifically an Ibanez – for jazz, i’d suggest a fender, for rock, a gibson (all electrics), but if your going more for country, gospel, etc. go for an acoustic (idk tht many acoustic brands, sorry =( )
yes, but it hardens … yes, but it hardens your fingers making it easier to play later on and once you can play with normal plastic strings on acoustic switch to metal strings then you can play electric so its really easy to play but still practice with an acoustic whenever possible helps you make everything easier
it’s not wat’s … it’s not wat’s better. it’s what you like more. Pick something that you would want to play more. If you start off with an acoustic/classical ur fingers will harden up so when u advance to elec it won’t b so hard and ur fingers won’t rip. Also depends on what style you want to play. also, imo electrics are more versatile bcos u can do more things with it. IMO
acoustic the strigs … acoustic the strigs are harder than electric but when u gain calis it will be easier on the electric i started like that im recommending acoustic
same here. i have … same here. i have played piano for like 11 yrs since 6. lol.. and i regret that i didin’t learn guitar be4. but i’m getting my first guitar soon ;P
An Acoustic is much … An Acoustic is much harder to play than an electric, soley because the strings are much thicker. I recommend starting on an acoustic because it helps to build strength in your fingers, as well as the caluses that are esential.
I have played … I have played violin for almost 10 years, since 8, and I wanted to learn guitar. About guitars I know nothing at all! But the notes seem to be similar to the violin because of the fingers…
What do you recomend for beginning? An acoustic or electric guitar?
He forgot to … He forgot to mention that doobie he lost while filming this. Hell, at least he’s got a real Gibson SG and not some knock-off. I have both a Gibson SG & a Gibson Les Paul. Two of the greatest guitars ever made!
Helped me, I would … Helped me, I would have never known about the parts of the guitar if I didn’t see this… you do understand this a beginner tutorial, right?
Well, lessons are … Well, lessons are always good but I found it better to save my money for the harder stuff. As you can see, a lot of people post beginner lessons on YouTube and other websites. The best advise I could give you would be to a)watch other players (on youtube, your favorite guitarists and your guitar-playing friends), b)invest in a chord chart (it’s cheap and easy to learn from) and c)practice and take it slow, focus on one thing you want to learn. Most of all develop your own style. You’ll be great.
