What guitar would you recommend for a beginner? - Acoustic Guitar ...

First off don’t listen to Cipher hes a complete and utter moron.

Anyway I bought my first electric guitar about a year ago (i should have started acoustic..sorry) And am now disappointed with my choice. I decided to go for the cheaper Epiphone SG g-400 and have ended up regretting it. I spent 400 dollars on it but now I want a Gibson SG and I see that the epiphone was a waste of money.

If you have the money (just remember this may last the rest of your life) I recommend you get the best guitar possible.

A Gibson Sg standard is a fantastic guitar for the price and give a great sound for all genres. Another good idea would be a Fender Stratocaster which is more suited to blues and rock.

I generally order my guitars from The US these days as it’s cheaper and it has always turned out well. I have recently purchased a Wah Wah pedal off Musicians Friend.

EDIT: you will regret your purchase if you listen to these others.

Guild F-1512E

Classic 12-String Lines

Guild has clearly used its top-of-the-line F-512 as a model for the F-1512E. In addition to the 16.5-inch wide jumbo body’s East Indian rosewood back and sides, the F-1512E has an Indian rosewood fingerboard and bridge, the latter of which has Guild’s distinctive shape with two points facing toward the endblock. And like earlier Guilds, the three-piece neck design puts a strip of maple between two pieces of mahogany and includes two truss rods, which has historically proven to ensure neck stability even with the additional string tension inherent to a 12-string. With original Guild 12-strings, you accessed the twin truss rods at the headstock, but the F-1512E’s truss rods are reached through the soundhole. And while F-512s and other high-end models typically had multipiece fingerboard inlays that inset an abalone triangle into a large pearl block, the F-1512E has simple mother-of-pearl block inlays. The headstock overlay has also been simplified: rather than the traditional black face, binding, and “Chesterfield” logo, the F-1512E’s headstock is capped with plain rosewood.
