First Electric
First Electric
I've been learning on acoustic for just over a year now and want to get an electric. Music styles I like are 90's grunge, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Foot Fighters.
Two thoughts.
Buy an inexpensive model like the EC-50 and later upgrade to a nicer one. Or just save up and get the one I really want, the EC-401VF DMZ LD. and enjoy for years. Love that sound!
I won't be joining any bands, too old for that. It's more or less just for me to play and enjoy.
What's your thoughts?
I went to guitar center and tryed out 20 new guitars in the 300 price range and i was about to get a epiphone sg then tryed some used guitars. The very ladt one i tryed was a esp ltd mh 250 nt and it was 250 used but in excellent conditions. After playing for 10 minutes i knew that guitar wad coming home with me. After three days 3 hours a day practicing the guitar almost plays itself. It is really easy to play comfortable and it gets some really heavy tones from it. I like metal and i have a 100 dollar line 6 15 watt amp and let me tell you . i barely put the volume on 3 and everyones like can you turn it down hahhahahahhahha its loud it sounds really good im learning to play quick now. I had a behringet cheapy strat model and it was hard to play and only sounded good when i adjusted and set up everything and bought the line 6 amp. It has metal mod and insane crunch and clean. Im verry happy with my set up i may buy some new pickups in a couple years like some eddie van halens i like the way the scream and sing but for now this esp mh 250 is amazing. Great quality great sound. You just have to figure out how to strum the strings properly and get the right heavy pic. I got dunlop tortex heavy. This guitar is awsome for beginners really easy to play.
Personally, if you already know what you want save up for the one you want. Then you can use the EC-50 money to pick up a model that you want to try out.
