Cheap Electric Guitars-You Can Own a Quality Guitar For Cheap
Owning a really nice guitar can be very exspensive. Fact is most folks looking for cheap electric guitars are just starting out and can not afford a $1000 guitar. The good news is you can have a nice sounding guitar that will stand the test of time for between $200 and $400.
You may be asking, how can I find a cheap guitar that still sounds good? Or I am starting out, which body stlye is right for me? Should I buy new or used? With all the brands out there, how do I know which one is the best?
These are all common questions that are asked when considering a guitar purchase. They are good questions. I would like to address some of these concerns in the following article. If you are thinking about buying cheap electric guitars, Hopefully you will find this information helpful. I have been around music and guitars since the early 70’s. It is a pleasure for me to research these things.
Body Styles of Cheap Electric Guitars
How to determine which body style is best for you
It really boils down to a personal preference when deciding which body style to choose.The solid-bodies and semi-solid bodies are the preferred choice for most “rockers” There is that straight forward sound that makes these guitars unique. The hollow-body guitars on the other hand resonate more along the lines of an acoustic guitar. They are used more frequently by jazz and blues players.
I think if you are just starting out, I would go with a semi-solid body. With this guitar you will have a broader range of sounds without having to use special effects. But what it really comes down to is you getting out there and testing a number of cheap electric guitars out.No matter which one you choose, the way manufacturers are building this things these days, you can be sure to find one reasonably priced that will perform very well. Ultimately it’s all about how it feels and sounds.
Quality Sound In Cheap Electric Guitars. What is sweet to your ear is what is most important
Again, this really is up to the individual. Everyone’s taste are so different. Some people like a crisp high end sound, while others prefer a resonating sustain and everything in between. You would be surprised at how much you can change the sound simply with the controls on the guitar. By adding an special effect (like a Boss DS-1 Classic Distortion Pedal) that cost no more than $40 you can do even more with the sound.
If you happen to have a old guitar that isn’t worth much, or a cheap guitar that just sounds lousy. One thing you can do is change a few things out. Start with the pick-ups. You can buy a…humbucker pick-up for around $100. The other thing you can do is replace the tuner heads…Ping Chrome Tuning Heads Just doing these two things will really improve your guitars performance.
Cheap Electric Guitars-Buy New or Used. Just be careful if you buy a used one
In making a decision on whether to buy a new or used guitar, consider a couple of things. Sometimes you can find a really sweet used guitar. The people selling the guitar just don’t know the value of it or they simply just want to get rid of it. At the same time you need to be cautious when looking at used cheap guitars. It’s like buying a car, you don’t want a lemon.
It would really be wise to bring someone along that knows a lot about guitars if you are going to go that route. Some of the common defects can be… a twisted or warped neck, damage to the frets or tuning heads. One of the hardest thing to detect is a hair line crack, which can be either on the neck or the body of the guitar. If the tuning heads are bad or the pick-ups are lousy, these things can be replaced without spending to much money.
I think you are better off buying a new guitar. At least until you become very familiar with the different brands.That way if you are not satisfied you can bring it back. There are some nice guitars out there that you can pick up for a few hundred dollars. The nice thing is it’s yours from the start, no one else was beating away at it. You can work it to your style of playing. If you buy new, do your best to hang on to it. I don’t know how many musicians I have talked to that wished they had hung on to that first guitar, (If that is the case for you.)
The Right Brand of Cheap Electric Guitars. There are a lot of good options
With so many different brands out there, many of which are great performers for the money, the best thing you can do is check out all the ratings and reviews and determine which guitar you see repeated more often then the others. Keeping your price limit as your guide.
If you are not excited about running around the Internet trying to figure out the best deal, check out my website. I did all the running around for you, bringing the best deals to one place. I have four merchants in one site, so you can save time and money. I am sure you will be happy with the many choices available.
