If you can afford the 15w amp, that would be a little more versatile, but 10w will be fine for just bedroom practice.

Good luck.

It looks pretty tight in there. You may need a micro soldering iron. Just remember, you don’t heat the solder, you heat the wire and whatever you’re soldering it to. Otherwise you will have a big mess of solder on your hands, and no telling where it will drip.

It is very important to be familiar with the guitar before learning how to play on it. As you already know, the guitar is one of the oldest instruments in the world.

The acoustic guitar was invented in the late 1700’s while the electric one is almost 200 years younger being officialy unveiled in the 1930’s. Both acoustic ad electric guitars share the same attributes and the only difference between them is that the latter will need an amplifier to rock.

A guitar consists of a headstock, tuners, nut, guitar neck, sound hole, body and bridge. If you take each one of these parts out, then the guitar won’t sound the same because every little part play its role to produce the perfect sound.

A guitar player must know how to hold the pick. If you don’t use a pick you might hurt your fingers very bad. You must keep the picking hand open with your palm facing you. While keeping your thumb beside the index finger you should make a loose fist. Then rotate your hand while your thumb’s knockle faces you.

Next comes tuning. Every guitar player must know how to tone a guitar before playing it. You can find various online tutorials on the Internet that will help you tune your guitar without using an electronic tuner.

After tuning the guitar you should learn the scales. Any beginner must know which finger (except for the thumb) should press which string.

The thumb is only used by proffesional guitar players but for the beginners it is only a support. At first you must learn how to make your other four fingers get along with the chords.

Once you’re ready you should play your very first chord. It might help you if you follow the instructions on the illustrated chord charts.

All the above mentioned tips are only the basics. In order to become a professional you must learn a lot more. The beginner lessons are very important and if you’re really committed and if you want to become a rockstar then you’ll learn all kind of tricks in no time.

Practice makes it perfect and you must keep that in mind all the time.
