Answer 2

It's actually really difficult to learn. It usually takes 2 years or 3 to learn how to play it.

Answer 3

My advice would be first figure out what kinda music you wanna play. If it's metal I suggest looking at ESP Guitars, Ibanez, Schecter. If it's gonna be on the lighter side then you might wanna look at acoustics. many companies make those.

Answer 5

Just go get anything.. You're a beginner and need to try it out a little before you go out and buy an expensive one

Answer 6

Hi :)

I Bought my piano off of this website. The stuff is cheap and good quality. If you want to do it the right way though go to a music store and play with some stuff to see what suits you best then maybe see if they have it on the site cheaper. That's what I did and I saved like $150.

Anyway I would say start off with learning some basic chords. You can play a ton of stuff just by knowing a few. Also youtube has a ton of lesson vids you can look at. Here are some good websites to check out for songs once you know some chords or start to learn tab.

Answer 10

good guitars cost a shitload honestly. do you want to spend that amount on a guitar when you're "thinking" about playing? I would say you should probably get a cheapo 100 guitar to start and wait till you know if you want to play or not. feel it out a bit. then start looking for whats good
