Starters guitar

[cybrid 0]

Hey, I have just come into some money and I'd like to know how one goes about learning guitar. I know absolutly know nothing about them and want to know what kind is good for a beginner and what kind of amp to get. I'm am currently growing a mullet to get with it (seriously).

I'd go for a cheap strat or an Ibanez. Depending on how much money you have. I started out with a Mustang and still play it.

There that foot pedal thing that goes with the guitar to change the sound type right? How many different sounds are available?

Erm... If its a distortion pedal I think there are presets that you can set up (treble, overdrive, etc. etc.). You really don't need one if you are just learning. Its easier to learn the basic chords and such.

Theres more different kinds of pedal than you have feet my friend! ...

Try growing your fingernails long and squeezing your balls to strenghten your fingers up ...

Poseur.

Anyway I recommend Fender's "Strat Pack" which is a 10 or 15w amp with a Fender Squire which is basically an overseas made Strat. They aren't top of the line, but they are pretty cheap. You get everything you need to play: guitar, amp, cord, strings, tuner, gig bag, and a video. It runs for about $280 I think.

Later when you've gotten better and you want a better sound you can always replace the pickups and get a bigger amp.

Actually I started growing the mullet before I had any intention of playing guitar.
