I am planning on purchasing an electric guitar (used) sometime in the next month. I know very little about electric guitars, or guitars in general. My price range is about $300-$600.

I want to buy my guitar over the internet, so what are the cables, amps, other equipment, body details, etc. that I should know before buying?

I want to play an electric guitar, but I don’t know much yet.

What are some good things to look for for a beginners guitar?

Also, I like death metal and power metal so what do I need to look for to find one that would be good at that?

I’m a pretty big guy and i would really like to buy an electric guitar. I’m one of those guitar hero to real guitar guys and was looking for some advice. I have a small acoustic guitar and i can’t do anything with it but i’m wishing, with a new cool electric guitar i’ll have more incentive to practice. So does physique matter when buying a guitar? also any other buying tips would be appreciated thanx

basically, what are the different things to consider when comparing buying two different electric guitars? I’ve been playing my acoustic Guild for about a year and now I want to switch to electric. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I have dabbled with guitar over the years and recently found that my interest has been rekindled. I’m OK (know most chords and a few scales) but can’t read music or know enough to thrive in a band, for example. I want to get better, perhaps take some lessons, and am seriously considering buying a good electric & amp (have a good acoustic (Yairi) now). But is all this worth it if I don’t know if I plan on being in a band, playing in front of people etc? It’s great being able to play along with bands you enjoy and being a basement/garage player, but if you don’t have a strong goal to play live or at least have some end goal like that, is all the effort and expense worth it?

Does that affect playing? Is it a problem after some time? Can it be fixed?
