What are the differences between playing an acoustic guitar and an electric one? Is one harder to learn/play than the other? What are some good brands for guitars?
Answer
The electric guitar is much easier to learn on simply because there are a wider range of techniques available for use on it. The strings are thinner and can be bent easier, which provides pitch changes. The electric guitar is more easily recorded. The electric guitar has an almost infinite sound possibilities due to the constantly rising range of effects pedals.
The downside to an electric guitar is that it almost always needs some type of amplification, where the acoustic guitar has a sound hole which acts as its own speaker.
The acoustic guitar can have either steel/nickel strings, which is more common, or it can have nylon strings. They are more commonly used for classical style guitar. Steel/nickel stringed guitars are also tougher on your fingers. They require a bit of a tougher callus. Many people prefer it because of its "natural" sound though.
Good brands for electric guitars are
Ibanez, Fender, ESP, Jackson, Gibson, Schecter, epiphone, Dean, B.C. Rich(for more death metal-ish styles), music man, and Washburn
Acoustic guitar brands, classical and steel stringed
Alvarez, Taylor, Fender, Yamaha, Gibson, Martin, Ovation, Cordoba, Ramirez, ibanez, Hill, Alvarez, and la patrie.

Is it easy to play the acoustic guitar after learning how to play the classic guitar?
Daryl Rafa
I want to learn how to play the acoustic guitar. I know how to play the classic guitar. Is it going to be easy to switch? How are they different? Can I start playing the electronic guitar without getting an acoustic guitar first?
Answer
Depends on what type of music you want to play.If you can decently play your classical, acoustic won't be a problem. It is pretty similar except that classical use alot of finger picking and is for country-ish/folk songs. Acoustic guitars have heavier and crispy sound. Play electric guitar if you like rock,metal,punk,alternative music, you can also buy effects, pedals to create a sound of your preference. My suggestion, focus on one type,You won't improve much if you try these three at the same time.
P.S Don't believe people saying that you should first learn acoustic/classical before jumping to electric. I have been a victim of that stupidity. Goodluck mate. :)
