I'm gonna try to learn the guitar again, I tried earlier like when I was 12 and I was like fuck this shit yo im never gonna be good, anyways I'm gonna try again, any real suggestions, like should I use an acoustic, electric (My friends older bro does have an amp he doesn't use any longer and will linx it to me for like 10 bucks), so yeah any real suggestions really to acoustic or electric, figured I'd just look at a shit load of tabs and just self teach, but maybe lessons, idk.

id say acoustic because you will have more dexterity when you play electric

plus acoustic gets the girls, electric makes you look cool

thats about what it comes down to really


nah but just go to any guitar store and try a few out, WE cant tell you want to buy because everyones guitar preferences are different

When you go with an electric (after you've learned to play acoustic), I would go with a Fender Stradacaster.

i would go with ibanez,


but he might like gibson better (yuck)

vouch this

Make sure you or someone with more experience (not the salesmen) plays the exact instrument you buy. do not let them go in back and get you a different guitar even its the exact same model. all low end guitars are made on assembly lines. meaning one can play/feel a lot different from another even though its the exact same model. I've always bought used guitars so I have never dealt with this. just make sure your happy with your purchase whether its acoustic or electric. Also, starting on an acoustic will strengthen your hands much faster then an electric. Therefore I would start with acoustic. it really doesn't matter which brand/color/shape the guitar is aslong as your comfortable playing it.

As for learning to play.. people want results so fast these days. just know that you will be frustrated when learning something new and sometimes it will feel like you are not improving at all. You must have a deep love for the instrument. the desire to learn is rarely something a teacher can give you. you must have that desire within you without anyone having to push you. with all of the resources there are now on the internet, I would suggest teaching yourself. If you do take lessons, it should be after you're completely exhausted trying to understand something and you truely feel as if you've pushed yourself as far as possible. picking the right teacher for you is important. be prepared with many questions for your new teacher and make sure your teacher understands what your tastes & goals are as a guitarist.

I recommend the acoustic when you are first learning.
Easier to learn the fundamentals of cords.

This is my opinion.

all the advise has been bad so far
first, figure out what you want to play and with that comes what type of guitar you will be playing on

Uhm, no, not really.

Gibson ftw!!

if you are starting guitar, get an acoustic. The chord progressions you can learn on Acoustic will always be with you when/if you play Electric.

Start with Acoustic Look at Fender, Yamaha, Encore

Don't ever buy an Ibanez or a gibson as yr first guitar, that shit is nothing but silly...
