Hey all. Kinda new here, but so far I've enjoyed these forums! I'm learning alot here. Just started recording music and I have so many questions. This one is about an electric guitar. Or should I say, my first electric guitar. I have an acoustic, but now I'm looking for something a little more exciting and easier to play. My acoustic is old, worn out and pretty difficult to work with. Well ok I lied. I have an electric guitar. An old Squier II that was given to me when I was 13 and I hardly even played the thing. When I finally decided to get it out and play it, it doesn't work anymore. So this might as well be my first guitar purchase.
Since I've messed around with my acoustic a bit and have some experience, I don't want to get a real cheap beginners guitar. Looking to spend no more than $400 on one. I was looking at a Ibanez RG350 online to order (local music store only has fenders and I don't really like any of them).
So what's your opinion? Ibanez RG350? Good guitar? I'm not real good with my lead yet, mostly just rhythm and basic chords, but starting to play with lead a little. Saw a few RG370 guitars that I liked and for the same price but I don't know hwat the difference is between the 350 and 370. But anyway, any thoughts or advice? OH, and I don't know jack about pedals, but I'll need to buy one. Maybe a cheap 20 or 30 dollar pedal. What say you?
