Hi guys, I have been playing acoustic guitar for many many years and recently have decided to venture into electric guitar with all the more fanciful picking, solo, etc techniques. I know it is a totally different ball game altogether with the different technicalities from single coil, humbuckers, tuners, effect pedals etc.
Frankly Im a abit lost. I already have an amp and just got the zoom G2Nu effect pedal. When I tried to hook it up to my martin acoustic, the distortions got alot of feedback. The rest of the modules like delay and modulations were fine. I suppose its time i should get a proper electric guitar.
I know single coils have brighter sounds while humbuckers produce warmer sounds. Can I humbly ask whats the difference between the various types of guitars, strats, Les pauls, etc... since they have different combinations of the 2 pickups? Which would be a good guitar to start off with?
Scouted arnd city music and swee lee for the familiar ibanez, epiphone, etc. The frenly staff at city music recommended a craftman guitar with 2 single coils and a humbucker pickup combination going for $200 plus a bit for a start. I saw the craftman les paul at city music at arnd $300 plus. The Les Paul looks dam nice for that price. There are some good reviews on that in this forum as well.
So any recommendations for a startup guitar bros?
Thanks in advance!
