My 8 yr old son wants to learn the guitar, what would be a good starter kit?
I have seen the electric kits with a mini amp, or would an acoustic be better for a beginner? Also any good beginner books, websites etc.
Things to consider:
I do not want to pay too much for his first as he may lose interest.
I am in the UK.
I would say it doesn't matter much which one you get him, if he decides to run with it he will. Some advice I can give you though is that the electric guitars are going to be easier on his fingers. If you are thinking of going the acoustic route thats good too. He will be able to make music faster with an acoustic, at least that is what i found in my experience of learning. I started with an acoustic and eventually got an electric but i primarily play acoustic because it is much more fun to play alone (without any other instruments) As far as learning goes, it depends on the type of music he is into. The dummies books are very good. Everything you could ever want to learn is on the internet though. Youtube is probably the most fun and easy way to learn stuff because there are a lot of people that give lessons to songs on there. Some are not accurate however. But for the most part he will learn a lot on there. Good luck and tell him that after he gets the basics it will be the most rewarding thing he will ever learn. long live music, rock on.
