Question: What's the Coolest Colour for an Electric Guitar?
Answer: According to your avatar and user name, you’re a guy, not a girl. So why many people here want you to have a pink guitar???
I think black or the colors of fire are the best for an electric guitar.
I think it’s up to the genre of music you play.
If it’s hard rock, black.
If it’s new rock or punk rock, try more weird colors, but not pink!Pink is for rock-girls, not for rock-guys…

This week’s question is a good one. Let’s have a look:
Question: I have just bought a electric guitar and i can’t really afford lessons. Does anyone know what is the best and easiest way to learn how to play. Time is also a problem because i have to young children. My inspiration to buy and learn is Brian May, i have been a Queen fan for as long as i can remember. Thank you for your help
Answer: Plenty of tab sites my friend, take agood look at them 1st, it’s like a map gets you used to where notes are etc, learn a few scales, again shows you where notes run etc, get into the habit straight away of picking the string uphill aswell as downhill, downhill is somewhat natural to do and easier, but uphill picking gives you the speed, i had the habit at 1st of downhill picking only! wish someone had given me the advice on that one!
your fingers will kill you at 1st, the tips will burn like mad! you may have to keep laying off a couple of days, but they do harden up trust me.
keep your finger nails short on your fret fingers.
SOUND is very important, if you have a sound that you are happy with it gives you the motivation.

Keep the electric guitar questions coming! I liked this one:
Question: where can i buy a full size nice electric guitar…….. but it needs to be like 40 to 60 pounds
Answer: Seriously if thats all you’re willing to pay, don’t expect a good one. For that price you’re looking at a fat, slow playing neck with an uncomfortable action and terrible pickups.
You could get something like a high quality Yamaha or an Ibanez for around £100-300. If you want it cheap then I would recommend Yamaha, their guitars are cheap but the built quality is very good as are the electronics. You will enjoy playing and it will last a lot longer than most other budget guitars.
If there is a branch called ‘Music Box’ somewhere near you then they should have something like this, just be careful that you don’t get ripped off. A lot of these big stores like to charge through the roof for shoddy gear.
An alternative would be to go to a small, independant retailer. Their prices are often very low and they are usually a lot more honest than the bigger stores. They will also be willing to give you a lot of information and sometimes even do small maintenance and repairs on your guitar for free.
Buying online is hazardous, especially e-bay. A lot of guitar buyers get ripped off on e-bay. Also you want to be able to try before you buy. This is crucial in buying a guitar.
If you go to a shop near you, make sure you can try out the guitars, try a range of them to see what styles and features suit you. Also if you don’t know much about guitars ask them about the different kinds of-
Neck joints.
Pickups.
Tone woods.
Pickups.
Bridges.
Only by learning about these different things and trying them out for yourself will you be able to make an informed choice and buy the guitar that’s right for you.
Another thing to consider is amplification. If it’s going to be in your house you probably don’t want to get more than 50 watts. Make sure it has a clean channel and an overdrive/distortion channel. A good amp to get would be a Line 6 Spider II, they are VERY cheap, very high quality, have an extensive range of tones plaus built in effects. Again make sure you can try them out preferably with the guitar you plan to buy.
Hope this helps.
