I've always loved the sound of an electric guitar, and now I've decided to get one and start learning it.
I want someones expertise on what electric guitar should i get for a beginner ( beginner as in never even held a guitar in my hands ) for around ~300-350$ .. I like guitars which have a more metal oriented sound..
Also one of my concerns is, I've read that many people say learning the electric guitar as a first is way too complicated and i should start with an acoustic one... The thing is I've always dreamed about an electric one, but the fact that people say it's too complicated for beginners is starting to scare me off.
The guitar that I've been so far considering is the Epiphone Gothic SG ( http://www.zzounds.com/item--EPISGGOTH )
and the ESP LTD F-10 ( http://www.zzounds.com/item--ESPF10PACK , it's a pack, i know amps in packs are crap but i just want that guitar ) .. What scares me off from this one is that it's said that it's a "pure rock" guitar.
Also to anyone who says " go to a local store and try 'em out " , weird as it is, there are no local stores here in my city that sell guitars ( or at least decent ones ) , i can either order them by web or go to the capital which is far and I'd rather just order it.
P.S I hope there are people who know about this here.. Didn't want the thread to lay dead Also i hope this is the correct sub forum. If not, Moderators, please move this to the correct one.
Any opinion is welcome.
