Blueridge BR-40

There is a popular joke that goes ? There is a frog driving one way on the highway, and a banjo player driving the other way ? what?s the difference. Answer, the frog has a gig.

There are so many different instrument s out there that it is difficult to say which one is the best, but certainly one of the most versatile instruments out there is the guitar.

For centuries, the guitar has been around, and in that time, it has grown in stature and use because it is so easily adaptable to many different styles from jazz to heavy metal, and Spanish to classical. Learning the guitar and mastering it can be the joy of an entire lifetime. However, buying that first one can be painful sometimes.

There are so many different makes and models that suit this or that style that it is easy to get lost in all the choice. As a friend if mine who has been in the music business says, ?You have to go with your gut?. Always listen to that little voice and watch that you don?t override it. Some prefer the mellow sound of the ?flat top?, or acoustic, and others love to blast everything to pieces with an electric that sounds like its on steroids, but there is one common guideline that makes the best sense of all ? ?If you?re starting out, get something that isn?t pricey. There are many good makes out there that are ideal for starting on.

There are reasons for going with the inexpensive first. When you start out, all the instruments in the store are like candy, they all look so beautiful, and when you watch someone test playing one, it?s intoxicating, and all you know is that you want that one!

Work with the sales staff, but first check and see if the store is a good one. You will know if it?s a good one by how many professional musicians go there. In a good store, the staff doesn?t try to push you into getting the most expensive one there; they work with you to your playing level and to your budget.

Good sales staff know that starry eyed look that beginners get and will steer you in the right direction according to your needs and your budget. They know that many who start playing can lose interest quickly when they find out what it takes to get to where they can play that beautiful music they heard being played by a pro. Do not make yourself crazy just enjoy the adventure.

So, when you?re looking for the ?perfect guitar? for you, remember to listen to that little voice, and when you also listen to the sales person, you will get something that is ideally suited to you. So, is there such a thing as the perfect guitar?? Go looking and find out. Remember in the end it comes down to what you want and your preferences.
