I like Fender and Gibson.

Try Musiciansfriend.com

I just checked they have some good prices in your range. Maybe and electric acoustic???

Was it a Les Paul?

Hi I want to start playing electric guitar but the problem is I have small hands. Has anyone got any tips on a good starting guitar that is relatively cheap (I'll pay about £250 max).

Also, should I start with accoustic guitar first? and if so any recommendations there?

I have small hands so I'm worried I won't be able to play guitar properly =S it sounds stupid, right?



Answer
I don't know if a Taylor or Martin, even the cheapest ones they make (which I believe still run upwards $400.00 to $600.00 USD), would be right for you. For that much money you can get a fantastic guitar built by a different company (ibanez, alvarez, epiphone, etc) whereas the low-level (but still somewhat pricey) martins & taylors will abolutley SUCK. Believe me on that, I can speak from experience, at least with entry-level Martin acoustics...they are shamefully bad for how expensive they are!

I think an electric starter set would be better for you, especially if you're just starting out and youre not 100% sure if you're going to stick with it or not. Also, the electric will be much easier on your "small hands" (although there are plenty of great players with small hands....it just takes practice!). Then later, if you like playing and are getting good, you can buy an acoustic, which, truth be told, is a bit harder to play (or harder to finger anyway) than an electric guitar.

Most of the major companies (ibanez, epiphone, fender/squire, etc) have fantastic starter sets where you'll get a very decent electric guitar, with a strap, a small amplifier, a tuner, and a guitar cable (and maybe even some other stuff like a guitar stand, gig bag, instructional DVD, etc) for under or right around $300.00 USD (so maybe, like, 200 pound or less). Like the guy above me said, go to musiciansfriend.com, they have the absolute best prices & customer service & warranties and stuff. Below is a link to their webpage of electric starter sets.
