  What is the best guitar for a beginner ?

  This is a very good question. Though the answer to it is not as simple.
  There are various kind of guitars based on Shapes and Sizes and Budgets one has which can get extremely confusing.
  Let me categorize it in 3 types.

  1. The very basic guitar is a small sized guitar i.e. either 38” or 39” meant for absolute beginners. These are ideal for Children and Smaller built people. These guitars would cost anywhere between Rs. 3500.00 to Rs. 4500.00. Some guitars come with built in pickups which can be connected to amplifiers. In my opinion those features are not needed for beginners.
  2. The second level of entry guitars are medium sizes guitars with slightly better features. These guitars are ones for the more serious ones and definitely have a better sound over the most basic guitars. These guitars can cost anywhere between Rs. 5000 to Rs. 9000.
  3. The third level of guitars would be ideal for someone who is starting but pursuing a professional music Course. There are times when a musician is not motivated enough only because the instrument is not good enough. In case of a student pursuing a professional course, my suggestion would be to go in for a guitar which can be used for performances as well. These guitars will range anywhere from Rs. 7500.00 to Rs. 13000.00.

  Music Stores try to promote guitars with built in Pre Amplifiers which in my opinion is not needed unless there are stage performances. Those can be added as accessories as well.

  All these guitars meant for beginners are purely suggestions based on our personal opinion and experience.

  Is it better to buy a new guitar or a used one ?

  A new guitar will always be a better bet unless you are already an experienced musician and you can judge the quality of a guitar. The used guitar market can be very misleading and many people try to sell their equipment to beginners take advantage of the lack of their knowledge. Hence buying a new instrument is a better bet -
