Pick the perfect Electric Guitar of your taste

You are planning to purchase a guitar which may be the very first instrument in your life. On the other hand you might be upgrading or even adding a second or third guitar to your collection. Guitars are indeed very fascinating instruments and there is no such thing like having enough or even too many guitars. So when you are planning to buy the musical instrument, it is good to consider certain major factors.

First consideration should be given to your budget. This would considerably narrow down your choices. If you are having a minimal budget, then you would be surely not looking for high end guitars since they are all a bit expensive. Even then the less priced guitars would play in good condition only. Usually a person’s first guitar would actually be the main axe in the coming years. And these days most of the guitar manufacturer’s closely inspect high end instruments and would incorporate some of their features that makes the guitars so special.

Now you have to consider the different types of electric guitars available. Most of the electric guitars would have solid bodies; this means that the body is made of solid wood or in solid colors. The types of wood used for making solid body are alder, ash, mahogany and basswood. A carved, figured maple cap would be often seen over a solid mahogany body. The second variety is the semi-hollow instruments that are usually thin and light weight with either part or whole of the Guitar Body being hollow. True hollow bodies, which is the third type would have a deeper body means more space between top and back, and usually ‘f-holes’ are tuned to allow the guitar’s body to resonate acoustically. However the pickups are installed allowing the guitar to be played through an amplifier.

There is yet another model of electric guitar known as the Synth guitar. It is mostly a standard electric one which has some additional hardware fitting that would allow it to be connected directly to a synth via a 13 pin RMC system.

If you are playing in a country bad, then the hollow body guitar may not be the perfect choice for you. You would much likely want a guitar along the lines of a fender telecaster or even classic electrics. Such guitars would produce a cleaner and brighter sound while the classic model would produce a darker and warmer tone. Similarly if you are laying in a jazz, you would need an instrument that would deliver warmer and smoky timbres and not a single coil one.

Color and finish of the electric guitar is usually a personal choice. Some players like bright and solid colors for their guitars while other would be happy to show the beauty of wood through single color transparent or translucent stain like amber and cherry or even royal blue. Most guitars today have two pickups; single coil or the ‘hum buckers’. Single coil produces bright sound while the others will have a dark and warmer tone.
