Message: [QUOTE="UCFan1513, post: 3246852, member: 5603"] Hey BY. I’ve recently been told by one-too-many friends that I should pick up a hobby. After some thought, I’m thinking that I’d love to teach myself the guitar. That being said, I vastly prefer electric guitars to acoustic ones (have a few months experience playing acoustic, but nothing lasting). A few questions: 1. Can I feasibly begin teaching myself to play on an electric guitar vs an acoustic? 2. What equipment (i.e. guitar, amp, headphones, etc) is best to purchase given a budget of about $1,000? 3. Slightly ignorant question here: could I play (to some degree at least) bass guitar riffs on a regular electric guitar. For example, could I play the Back in Black riff on a regular old electric guitar, at least to some degree? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
