Exactly… this is the way.

This might be the first electric guitar most players start with. It’s a classic.

Looks awesome! I got my first electric for Christmas too. I also have an acoustic, and they hang very similarly.

What was the first song you played on it?

I’ve been thinking about starting guitar. I love metal music and have wanted to play for a while, but now I think I can actually make time for it. Should I go straight to electric or start with acoustic?

@Channing
Go straight to electric. If you start with acoustic, you might get bored because it’s harder to play the songs you love. Your guitar should make you excited to play. Look into Ibanez Gios or Jackson JS series for metal.

Start with electric, no question. If you’re into metal, brands like Ibanez, ESP/LTD, or Schecter are great. Playing guitar changed my life for the better. And yeah, people dig it!

Schecters are amazing. I usually stick with ESP, LTD, or Jackson, but Schecter really surprised me.

I mostly play old Peavey guitars, but I agree… Schecters play just as well as my favorites.

Thanks, Eddie!

Taking a picture of a guitar without the headstock is like taking a photo of a beautiful person and cutting off their head. :wink:

That’s the same guitar I got as my first. It’s a solid choice.

18

I got the exact same one for Christmas too!

You should get a Tube Screamer for it.

Looks so clean… I love it.
