well, hi fellow people. i need some help. I am going to buy a new guitar don't know. Which type to get. I had a simple givson guitar the f-hole one. Now i m confused whether to get a electric guitar or a electro-acoustic one. If someone could tell me what's the diff between the two and whether the electro acoustic one would complete the need for both. I wanna try playing electric now. I have been playing acoustic for onr year now. Which one should i buy. And if u could plz post suggestions for some good guitars that i shoulld look for. Thanx in advance.........
It depends on the type of music u play......if u play hard rock/ metal its better to go for an electric guitar....but if u play classical/soft rock.........a semi elec would suit u........ the difference b/w electric and semi electric is dat a semi electric i an acoustic guitar with a pic-up......it can be played without connecting it with an amp and it can be connected be with an amp for a bigger audience....... but semi electrics do not give u da same tone as an electric when it comes to metal........dose sounds can only be given justice with an electric...... Whether to buy an electric or a semi electric depends either on your budget or on da genre of music u play...... cheap electrics are worse than semi electrics.........if your budget is around 10000 or less opt for a semi electric......if its about or above 20000 u can buy an decent electric with a distortion pedal/ processor and amplifier(both are necessary)..........
i think acoustic electrics are crap. If performing sometimes it comes handy(if need a acoustic sound). but otherwise I think people should go for solid body guitars. It surely enriches you. a mexican made fender strat will be my choice
Electro-acoustic would not complete the need for both. Get an electric if you want to play an electric.
go for an electric guitar....using a guitar processor u can get an acoustic tone( if u want one). if u have a budget of 20K go 4 an ibanez grg170dx and a gud guitar processor (zoom g2)
I hav just started learning guitar (3 months),, m using a granada PRD-4 guitar .. but now it seems lyk it is really rough on my fingers.. its hell of a pain if i practice for ...say 1 hour. Also ,, i tend to get a bit frustated .. partially becuase of pain .. nd becuse I SUCK at play ing it too... i heard somewhere tat its great to use electric guitar for learning.. so cn yu pls suggest me for some cheap guitar.. which falls under 10k Rs (including peripherals.. amps etc) .. but sounds good.. I BASICALLY WANT TO PLAY ROCK.. PUNK MUSIC ?? Pls help.. i am confused as i knw anybody who knows bout this stuff.. THANKS
Getting an elctric is the instant solution for your problem. I suggest that you stick with the acoustic until you think you need to buy a elctric, not just cause its easy on the fingers.
If u think, ur guitar gives u sum extraordinary pain, try changing the strings... but keep practicing hard, ur finger strength develops better on an acoustic... An electric is comparitively smoother, if u want one under 10k, including an amp, U got only java, givson, gba n sum chinese makes (dont go fr givsons, chinese mades are best bet), or u can go fr second hands... n u need a processor too if u wanna play punk... So wrapping it under 10k is rly difficult... Try ur luck...
