<![CDATA[ How do you figure? Both use the same even temperament, and both use the same fretboard. You can play either, and never learn any more music theory than is necessary to read tabs, and maybe improv a little bit, and many casual players on both do. I'd even say that an electric is more likely to encourage young musicians to study music on a deeper level than applies to just their instrument, because it is easier to find a place in a band. And, let's face it, as much as parents love to put their kids in lessons, 99% of guitarists learn about keys and intervals not in class, or from a tutor, but from hasty research after finding out their friends know more about it than them. ]]>

<![CDATA[ Hi,
I think that Acoustic Guitar is good for a beginner because on that guitar you can learn music more deeply than Electric guitars.

<![CDATA[ While I am still a novice player, and still learning, I started with an acoustic. I have also played on an electric guitar. I have found that it was easier for me personally to begin with the acoustic. It was easier on my hands. ]]>

<![CDATA[ Yes, your point is valid, but I think whoever wrote this was trying to explain how you can keep kids intrested. As long as you can hear what you sound like and its clean, you dont need an amp. I dont play my electric with my amp, and it just sounds like a muted version. Im not trying to start a argument. Im not that kind of girl. I just like my opinion in a matter to be heard. ]]>

<![CDATA[ Im a guitarest and I play euphonium in my middle school brass band. I began playing guitar in fourth grade. Its now my passion. You need to push past that urge to quit during the first few months because "Your not getting any better" or "Its hard to play" Yes, you are getting better and yes, it is hard to play, but its like that in the beginning. Push past it. You will find it becomes the most fun thing you do. Its a way to express yourself. Music completly changed my life. I can't remember my life without it. And maybe it can be what you do one day for a living. You never know, and you never will if you dont stick with it. ]]>

<![CDATA[ If you want to start with an electric guitar, you'd better buy a practice amp. It's not expensive, about from 100 to 200 is good enough for beginners. without amps, solid body electric guitars only make a weak sound differ largerly from played with amps. You also need to learn how to set up the amp like the clean or dostortion chanel. Hollow body electric guitars can be played unpluged but they are usually expensive and the tone is for jazz music not for all beginners. Just my 2 cents. ]]>
