Well, after some discussion with the teacher, I had my 12 year old kid skip the acoustic and go straight to electric. It is claimed that because the string action is tougher on an acoustic it is easier to segue from acoustic to electric. The problem is that you don't want your kid getting bored and giving up. The electric is more fun and makes all sorts of weird noises, so the kid might stay interested longer. I just bought him a Fender "Jumpstart" package. It includes a Squier SE with tremolo, a small practice amp, gig bag, tuner, strap, guitar stand and instructional dvd. That was bought at Guitar Center for $180 and then I had some promotional $$$ off. The guitar is the same one I have been renting for $30 a month, so he will be comfortable with it already. It's good for a beginner. No need to go out and spend hundreds on a better one when you don't know if the kid is going to stick it out and cheap enough so you don't have to buy one of these WalMart junkers, like a "First Act".
one from walmart.........its 79.99 and theres pink and black electric and original comes with ampNO!!! do not get walmart brand, and definite don't start on electric. There is a right way to start everything start him out on an epiphone accoustic, it sounds great. The truth is that on accoustics the pullback is a little harder on the strings so when you come to play electric you can perform killer soloes and stuff when you get better, it is kind of like lifting weights. Truth is even a fender squire would be better than walmart brand (which is a rip off). I hope this help anyway if you have absolutly any more questions about this just email me at calebprice@att.net =)i bought a black one with an amp. at walmart. I think it was about $80.00. good luck
