Buying a Guitar
Take your time to choose a guitar. First try to find out what kind of style you would like to play. For example if you like country music it is best to buy a western guitar. For blues you can buy a electrical guitar like Fender or Gibson. If you decide to buy a guitar don´t be too modest with the price. Ofcourse you can decide not to spent too much money for a guitar. The problem is that cheap models have an action (distance of the strings to the neck) which is too high. Like this your fingers have to press with more effort on the strings which in the beginning you really should avoid. Also the sound of these instruments can be very poor. Try to find a musicstore where they can give you good advice so that you can have a proper start.
Good luck with you practise!
