Well, if you want to rock, go electric. See if you can rent one, because you might get tired of it and stop wanting to play guitar- renting lets you give it back. Go to a local guitar store, usually those guys are really helpful and know what they're talking about. They'll help you find a guitar that's the right size for your hands, etc. All guitars are going to hurt your fingers for a while, but you'll get callouses and then it won't matter anymore.

Go to a music store that sells instruments. The people there will assist you with finding the right instrument for beginners.

well if you're first starting..get a cheap guitar..because people go through fasis and all of a sudden want to play the guitar cause they think it looks cool..but yeah..still get a cheap guitar so that you can learn and if you dont like it..it wont be as much as a waste..and eventually if you get better you can probably get a better guitar in the future..and you're never going to rock if you dont suffer the pain of your fingers hurting..its part of playing the guitar! NO PAIN NO GAIN!!! haha okay well i hope i helped..good luck and remember to have fun with it..okay bye bye:-D

I play guitar too.The electric guitar won't hurt your fingers as much as a classical or an acoustic. But to keep your fingers strong,it wouldn't be a bad idea to try one. There are many diffrent models of guitars,and only YOU can decide which one is right for you. But I would reccomend a guitar package to start off with.They cost very cheap.About $99.00. Remember guitar is a very hard instrument and you can't give up too easily.Oh,and keep your thumb BEHIND the neck.

Look around before you head out the door and buy the first one you set your eyes on. I suggest starting with an acoustic before electric. Every guitar is gonna hurt your fingers, unless you leave it sitting in the corner of your room collecting dust.

Get an electric guitar. I have one and it's really fun to play. Guitars do not hurt your fingers unless you are pressing down as hard as you can on the strings while playing. Playing guitar and learning it takes time, you can't just rock on the guitar. Taking lessons can be costly but it's worth it. If you want to rock like a rock star, its going to take years of practice.
Good Luck - QBillion

koshii answered Monday January 26 2004, 12:52 am:
I think I can even give you a choice here.
1.A soft guitar. I believe that certain companies make them out of jelly, feathers, silk, cotton balls, boiled noodles and snow these days. This would not hurt your fingers. Wow!
2.If you want to rock, I suggest you get a rock. These are widely available although I would advise you to be careful, because as you know the United States is currently at war with A Rock. I would personally ask all the rocks I see whether they like or dislike the US, and proceed thence.

Get a cheap guitar to start with. no reason to get a $450 one when you could get a $200 cheapo. If you dont want to hurt your fingers you could always try using a pick.

Cspinoza1 answered Sunday January 25 2004, 10:15 pm:
Its impossible for your fingers not to hurt when you buy your first guitar, so if you don't want your fingers to hurt don't buy one. But if your life me I saved to by the best I would a a fender that was my first guitar, but if you want something decent not so expensive get an Epi Sg300 its a good first start. Even a soft guitar will hurt the tips of your string fingers because they need to get calatyst so. The easiest way for your fingers not to hurt is wear skin tight gloves, I forget what they are made out of but they don't get in the way or they aren't think so they won't press other string or even touch them.

Your fingers dont really hurt, but they will get A LOT of streching done! Mostley with any kind of guitar will that happen unless you get an extra small one. Go to a music store to see what some good brands are.
