| Question: Is this guitar worth it? Posted: 23 Jul 2016 02:42 PM PDT A new Kona acoustic-electric retails for somewhere around a hundred bucks. That makes $60 a fair price *if* everything worked. There's no telling why the pickup isn't working. Pickups rarely fail, so it's more likely something in the pre-amp. Unless it's a dead battery, it's not worth fixing. (You can expect to pay a shop $50 an hour plus parts) So you have to judge this guitar on it's properties as a straight acoustic guitar. That's fine because nobody needs an acoustic-electric unless they're gigging...in which case, they'd want a better guitar anyway. I've never played a Kona. There are some good youtube reviews by inexperienced players who probably can't tell the difference between a good or bad guitar. On the videos, the guitar sounded like crap...which is to be expected of a thin bodied cheap guitar. Bottom line is that I wouldn't recommend this guitar even if it was new. As a broken used guitar, the deal isn't any more attractive. The only way you should consider buying it is if you can (a) try it first, and (b) get it for less.  |

| Question: I cannot make up my mind whether to buy an acoustic or electric guitar? Posted: 23 Jul 2016 11:17 AM PDT There are different opinions on which is best to learn on, but in truth, either is okay. Acoustic guitars don't have the distractions of effects. This makes it easier to develop good technique because you hear just the guitar. They are also cheaper, because you don't need to buy an amp. The strings on an acoustic tend to be heavier than on electrics, making them a little harder to press. It's really not a big deal, especially if you get a half-decent guitar that's set up properly. Yamaha makes very good entry level guitars. The other thing about acoustics is that they can be played anywhere and no amp is needed. Even if your goal is to play electric, an acoustic isn't a waste of money, since all players eventually want an acoustic too. The argument for electric guitars is that you should buy the type of guitar that's appropriate for the style of music you want to play. This can help keep a beginner motivated. The strings are a little easier to press. This isn't a huge deal, but it will be easier when you attempt barre chords. Remember: you'll absolutely need an amp, and don't cheap out. A crappy cheapo practice amp will make even the best guitar and player sound horrible. Bottom line is that you can go either way. I think the deciding factor in your case is that your instructor wants you to start on acoustic. If you're paying for instruction, why would you want to ignore his advice? |
