My price range is under $300.
I found an amp in my garage, too. Is Kustom a good brand for amps?
I'm kind of a beginner & usually just mess around on my Yamaha acoustic, but I know songs that are on electric guitar, so that's why I want one.



Answer
The best thing you could do is go to a guitar store and test drive a bunch of different guitars, since each one will have its own sound and feel. Since you're a beginner, you'll probably want a guitar with a thin neck and low action (the distance between the strings and the fretboard), since those things will make it easier to move around comfortably between notes and chords.

Ibanez makes fantastic guitars that are built like rocks, sound great, and are often nicer than guitars costing twice as much. They've also got really thin necks and low action. Fender and Squier by Fender guitars are also great, user-friendly guitars. Epiphone makes great, affordable guitars, as well, though the necks are rather fat and that can make them challenging to play. Since one person's dream guitar is another's nightmare, it's always good to see how different brands and different models feel in your hands before deciding.

If you want to do some research, Musician's Friend is a great resource. You can search by brand, price or customer rating. Guitarists also post instrument reviews that will give you a good idea which guitars are great players and which ones have "issues" that could make them difficult or impossible to play or keep in tune. Here's a link:

The most important thing is to choose a guitar that feels really natural in your hands. Everyone swears his/her favorite guitar is the best one, but if one guitar suited everyone, there wouldn't be so many brand names and models available. Trust your instincts, since the way your guitar feels to you is more important than the name on the headstock. The more comfortable you are with your guitar, the more you'll practice and the sooner you'll become a great guitarist.

Kustom amps are really cool. They were really popular in the '70s and then vanished for years before reappearing a while ago, since lots of guitarists were in the market for vintage and retro amps. And there are a lot of Kustom amps from the '70s still in circulation, which indicates they're built to last. A pretty cool thing to find in your garage! Good luck!
