V___ Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 I get a guitar! (FF fanfare) A friend of a friend was getting rid of junk from his garage, and he was just going to throw it out, but iv always been curious bout learnin guitar, so i saved it. Its not flawless, far from it. In fact it has a large hole in the side. If you hold it by the neck, strings out, there would be a hole as big as a fist next to your left foot. I was wondering what would do with the sound? Also i'l need to get some strings, and a pick i beleive. Any brands to stay away from/levitate toward, string wise? I hvnt done any research on beginer books/sites yet either, but if any come to mind that are highly recomended, i'd be much obliged! Thanks heaps! Quote
SnappleMan Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Is it acoustic or electric? Can you post a picture so I can see what you mean? Quote

Legion303 Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Your shit is jacked. Bahahahaha. DJV: you can probably still practice fingering and chords on it, but I imagine it's going to sound like crap. -steve Quote

And lessons/books are overrated, especially if you are good at music to start with. Just learn the tunings (E-A-D-G-B-E, starting from lowest sound) and head off from there. As for strings, when you are a beginner with a guitar with a hole the size of your fist, strings aren't going to matter much Quote
suzumebachi Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 dude back in high school this girl i knew played a classical guitar that had the bottom kicked out and it still sounded ok. the sustain was shit, but it still sounded respectable. Quote
