How about calluses? Are they bad?Raika said:Go for it, you won't regret it. It's really fun.
Acoustic guitars are pretty cheap compared to electric ones. But it depends on which you wanna play I guess.
SAME! Just that I started last year.Smartpal said:Well I started in '09 and it's been pretty good so far. If you can stick to it, then it's awesome. Start off with an acoustic and move your way up to an electric. Doesn't have to be like that though, you can get an electric first. It's just how I did it lol.

@becat: Calluses aren't bad, cos they help reduce the pain you feel at your fingertips while playing the guitar. And I don't play the acoustic, so I can't help you there.You can find some guides online that can help you though. There are many. :3
VashTS said:the callouses are fine. you will get some holes in your upper layers of skin for a while though. i've been playing about 10 years. it is a great hobby and fun to show off your skills, when you get them.
its also really REALLY fun to rock your socks off when you learn to play an entire song. i used to pop on metallica and play through master of puppets and the justice for all album. not to mention putting every rammstein album in queue and playing them through.
its worth it to learn, but takes a lot of heart.
