First things first in learning to play guitar is to own one!
You finally decide to start learning guitar excellent.Its one of the best ways to spent your time in my opinion (except you have annoying neighbors :-p).What do you need to make this happen?Mmmmhhhh.A guitar.Yes its that simple but now its time to split the post in 2 sub posts to electric guitars and acoustic or classic guitars.
2.Electric Guitar
When it comes to electric guitar you know exactly what you want! You want to play in big gigs with 1000 of people listening to you playing your solos. You want to be a rockstar. Every men has a dream and they want it to come true. But when it comes to an electric guitar there are so many things you have to know in order to choose the right one . First things to ask your self is what music do I want to play with it.Do I want to play metal,jazz,rock heavy metal? Its something that you need to know because you want to buy something that suits to your needs! You cant play metal with a guitar thts got single coils on it and etc! The 2 best options for your first guitar is a squire or an epiphone in my opinion whatever you want to start playing these two guitars will suit your needs!'
Epiphone Les Paul Special II
Fender Squier
These two cost from 100 to 200 dollars and their main differences are on the bridge and on the pickups. The squire has a tremolo bridge but the epiphone features a tune-0-matic which keeps the tuning better! The Epiphone has humbucker sound so it makes it more capable for things like metal,heavy metal,hard rock,punk and things like that. The squire from the other hand has single coils and its for more blues and jazzy things or something like Pink Floyd. My opinion on this one is to buy an epiphone because it offer a greater variety of music gernes that the fender although that you can play rock or punk rock with it !But can you play metal? The answer is no!But its up to you! Whatever inspires you more!
Should i buy a guitar from the internet or i should go to the store??
The best thing you can do in my opinion is to go to stores and not just one or 2 5-6.Every store have distinctive brands of guitars and believe me you dont want to buy a guitar that when you start playing sounds shit to you!So you go to a store you look but not alone.Take with you a friend you knows how to play just so you can hear every guitar you want to try.You finally found what exactly want and you start thinking of buying it but watch out!!!You always ask the manager when they have deliverd the guitar to the store.You dont want to have a guitar thats just have been played by 100 people before you or you can just find the one that fits you and the you buy it from an internet store.Sometimes even though the same guitar may sound a little bit different.
Here are some internet stores if you live in europe.
And if you live in USA.
AND MANY MORE.
