Any person, if he decided to make music, needs his own musical instrument. The choice of guitar must be approached with the utmost seriousness, because if you make a mistake, then a bad and low-quality guitar can completely discourage all your desire to continue practicing. In order to choose a good guitar, you can use the following tips.
Instructions
Step 1
The surest way to pick a good guitar is to find a knowledgeable person who is good at guitars and can help you. For example, a teacher at a music school would be ideal. Albeit for additional costs, but you will buy a 100% quality guitar.
Step 2
If you could not find such a person, then when buying you need to pay attention to the following points:
• The sound of a guitar depends entirely on the material of which the instrument is made. Basically, guitars are made from ash, maple, agatis, mahogany or alder. Maple has a good top and rich sound, mahogany has a good bottom and a sonorous sound, ash is a cross between mahogany and maple. You shouldn't pay much attention to the material. Remember to rely on your own ear first; you should like the sound of the guitar.
• Next, you need to pay attention to the external condition of the guitar, the presence of chips or cracks. Turn all the knobs (they shouldn't turn) and check the cord entry (if it falls through). With your guitar plugged in, turn up the volume on the amp - there should be no interference or noise. Taking the guitar like a violin, look along the neck, it should be straight and even.
• Then press the string in turn at any fret, while you should not hear any rattling or ringing.
Step 3
Do not hesitate to ask questions to sales consultants, but at the same time, do not listen to them too much, because they can give you a low-quality tool for a lot of money.
