Hi everyone!
I am a complete newby to this guitar playing business - I've got a very cheap second-hand guitar (Fender Squire) about three months ago, just to see if I could do something with it.
Well I've given it a go, I'm enojying it and - thanks to my mate, Jeff, and GMC - I'm making progress
Now I'd like to get a half-decent guitar and amp... but I've no idea what to look for. I think I'm going to need something with a thin neck, because I've got quite small hands... but apart from that, I'm a bit lost.
What sort of things should I look for when buying guitar and amp? I'd like to play a really wide range of music, and I'd like something that could take me as far as playing in a band (you've got to have a goal, haven't you?
).
I'm not particularly after specific guitars/amps (although that's useful) - just general advice about what to look for.
