Question: Wanting to play Electric!.!?
Hello, I've finally come to a point in life where, I'm bored, and I need a hobby!. So I thought that playing the electric guitar would be a great way to occupy my time since I love listening to Black Sabbath and Jimi!. My best friend plays bass so he's helping me the best he can by recommending brands,songs, etc!. I already have a guitar in mind

(I'm right handed, but I was gonna string it up right-handed and just flip it)[Like a reverse Hendrix] and possibly an amp!. I came here for just some helpful tips on guitar choices, websites, forums, mentors, etc!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

OK, first of all, a Fender is NOT a starter guitar!. A minimum price for just a standard, nothing special, is usually over $1,000!. Start by getting one of those packages like an ibanez geo or even epiphone (which is made by gibson)!. You should never invest that much money if you've never played!. That guitar is the same as mine and it costed me 1,500!.!.!.


Sorry, I forgot to leave something out!. Fender has 3 types, Chinese, Mexican and standard!. I think you should go with chinese or mexican!. This just means that the were made in mexico and china!. These Fenders cost 50 to 70% less so you'll be looking at like 200 - 700$, but it won't have the classic fender tone from like he american onesWww@QuestionHome@Com

Is stupid to try switching the strings in other spots!.
Get a lefty guitar!.
Look here for some left handed guitars:

Ask your friend for some advise on brands, pickups and wood!.
You said you like Sabbath, well, maybe you would like the Tony Iommi signature guitar!.
