When going and picking the guitar you want can be really really fun! There are so many different kinds of guitars like the list I talked about in the last post. There are a few things to consider when looking like price, accessories you’ll need to go with it, storage, brand, and of course the type of guitar you want.

When it comes to price- You get what you paid for! This is the golden rule when shopping for guitars on a budget. If you have a limit of under $300.00 you’ll get a guitar that has the sound and built with the materials made for a $300 guitar and won’t match up to a guitar you migh pay over $1,000.00 for. For beginners though I would caution to go either beginner packages or a cheeper guitar to see if you like it before spending so much money on something you may never really get into. You can always upgrade later

When it comes to Accessories - Be aware that you will need acessories for you guitar! Unless you prefer playing with your hands, you’ll need picks with whatever guitar you choose to get. There are a list of things you may want and need for comfort, playing techniques, and to keep good care of your guitar. If you’re looking at an Electric or Electric Bass, you will NEED an amp and a cable to play at all! Other things you may want to be aware of include straps, stands, cases, polish, capo’s, spare strings, capo, etc…

When it comes to Storage- If you want to take any kind of care for your guitar, you will need either a stand or case for it, and the space needed to keep you guitar from damage like being bumbed into by sharp or heavy objects…you can dent guitars and it does ruen your sound qualities.

When it comes to Brand- There are a few very trusted names in guitars for either beginning or expert players. Fender, Taylor, Takamine, Dean, Gibson are a few. Being aware of trusted guitar brands will help you in picking a guitar that will last you longer than unknown ones.
