How cheap is too cheap here?


Around Christmas, I have a ton of people contacting me because their kids are wanting to learn.

I always give them the same advice: NEVER give a young person an acoustic to learn on.

Go to Guitar Center (or the equivalent) and for less than $300 bucks you can get a nice electric guitar/practice amp to start on.

You can play it at low volumes to get an acoustic vibe and when you actually learn some chords and are serious, get a nice acoustic.

If you're REALLY going to end up seriously playing guitar for the rest of your life, you will eventually upgrade anyway..

Yeah, I have been eyeballing one of those Fender x Loog electrics for my 8-year old. She's very interested in playing, but she just has a little pink acoustic to play on. She doesn't have the hand strength for it, so it dissuades her.
