Hey there ... i'm back with my new blog post & here.. i will share you the most important things to remember & check when you are at the store or at the site to buy a brand new acoustic for yourself....
okayy... i'm gonna break it down to several points as follows ....
1) Buy an acoustic cum electric :
Buy an acoustic cum electric product.... because whenever you want its your choice.. play it normal or with amps ....& after some month of practice you might have learn it so well so that you might need to join it electrically either you want to perform live or record it digitally or just for home practice or anything else .... having a acoustic cum electric makes you feel a step ahead ....
How to check it's an acoustic cum electric:
1) see at the bottom of your guitar there is a pickup hole .. naturally 4 to 5 mm hole .. that can be used to plug in USB link or Amps or any type of audio output cable.. it means this is the required guitar.
2) Sound & Appearance :
Choose a guitar which looks good & sounds good because that makes you feel confident while playing. ( A good wood quality makes the sound better..)
3) Back of the fret-board is curved well enough:
check that fret back is curved well for best fit to your hand .... if you find it kind of flattened ,reject it.. for best choice, grip the frets of every guitars & examine the best smooth fit..
4) Bigger sound hole is better :
bigger hole delivers a big amount of sound intake to hole to vibrate & then your guitar sounds louder
5) Soft touch :
press the strings anywhere down the neck & pick ... check the hardness of the fret .... choose a soft touched guitar(you have to give less pressure upon string) .... a soft touch guitar is easier to play & faster to learn....
6) fret-string inter-gaping:
lesser the gaping, softer the touch... mainly above the 12th frets this gaping matters .. so check it there ....
7) Double strap buttons :
Having double strap buttons makes easier to wear the belt ..... one is at the bottom & the other is at the fret-body adjacency....
8) Tune sustaining :
pick a guitar & strum it again & again & check whether it drops its tuning ... choose which have maximum tune sustaining....a guitar which dis-tunes a lot may have manufacturing problem ...
9) Smooth fret ends :
the end of the metal frets should be finished fine & smooth..... slide over the fret & check whether the frets are smooth else rough ends will hurt your thumb....
10) Adjustable bridge :
pick a guitar with adjustable bridge so that later you can adjust bridge for your desire .. (Adjusting the bridge you can play much easier)
11) Shape & Size :
pick a guitar with a perfect shape & size that suits you best ..
12) At last Brand matters :)
these are the top brands:
Martin & co, Gibson , Grason , Hertz , Fender , Yamaha ... etc
