Electric guitar for noob

(01-10-2022, 10:08 PM)bengalfan74 Wrote: I tinkered around with an acoustic guitar in my youth for several years and got I dunno, decent I guess ? Literally like 40 years ago. I just bought a new lower end Fender acoustic oh several months ago and was trying to relearn but my granddaughter basically daughter got sick and has had a time last few months so my practice got put off.

She's getting much better now and I've recently started to practice again. However my old fingers are having a hard time with the string tension. Thye're not taking it very well, haha.

So, I've always wanted to try my hand at electrics and just have never rolled the dice. I've been looking pretty hard at a Gibson les paul tribute and a Fender champion 40 amp. I don't wanna break the bank but I also don't wanna sink big $$$ into something right off the jump.

Does that combo sound like a good start up or would you guys advise something else ?

Well I don't have much advise on Electrics as I am not a vet at that brother. I am acoustic all the way and acoustic/electric
which is completely different than say playing on a Les Paul or Strat. I do have a Strat but I don't ever play it much. Need to 
buy me a new pedal and fix my pickup on my Strat. 

All I know is there are tons of vids on youtube with great guitar players showing you how to play electric that I have been 
wanting to look up and practice myself once I get either my Strat fixed or just buy a better electric which will probably be 
the way I roll. I will get back to you on this one, just have fun for now, guitar is great for you spirit and your soul.

Rock On

BTW, don't buy your guitar on the internet. Play it first, this is my only advise. Play a guitar in a guitar store then buy it.

I bought 2 guitars on the internet and both were ****** up and my Dad and I had to fix them.
