I am looking for an acoustic guitar. I'm new to it, so I don't really know much. I was told to look for good brands like Yamaha, Takamine, or Ibanez. What's the difference? I went to some guitar websites and under each brand of acoustic guitars, there are different model names or series. What's the difference between each model in the guitar?

The brands you list all make inexpensive guitars (as well as some more expensive ones). I assume you're looking to get a guitar for $300 or $400. If that is the case you'll need to go to a local guitar store with a decent acoustic inventory. They might not have all 3 brands. You may need to shop around to try all the models and/or brands you're interested in.

The only way to understand the differences is to play as many of them as you're interested in. They will feel different- some will have larger or wider bodies than others. Some may have a cut-away to make it easier to reach the upper frets. Others may or may not have a pickup- to plug into a PA or amp- good if you plan on playing at open mics and such. There will not be dramatic differences in woods used and quality of construction at this price point, but you will like one or two (for whatever personal reasons- finish, feel, or so) more than the others. So take an afternoon and try some out. Good luck!

I saw a black Takamine that sounds beautiful and is made in Japan and retails around $1,400 and another that is made in Korea that costs $850 retail Takamine? Any thoughts? Cause Im trying to get a guitar that I am starting out with I have already been through a cheap $99 guitar that I hardly even played and it started cracking down and breaking on me and I just want a guitar that is going to last that I can take to the next level if I want it to. I really don't care about electric acoustic or anything I just want a good guitar. If you could help me decide if the price is right they are offering 30% off on both of those guitars. Again Thanks for any advice.

either Takamine will be durable and last decades as long as they are not kept in a wet basement or anything silly. the korean and japan made are both solid.

get the one that sounds best

Does anything differ? Sound Quality maybe? My reason for asking is i've been playing bass guitar for a few years and I'm going to play electric guitar once I get my new Fender. I already have a bass amp and don't want to spend too much more money. Would my Fender sound good with my bass amp and an electric guitar cabinet hooked up to it? Thanks in advance.

me thinks, it wouldnt.
i probably would play but since the bass amp is configured to play an octave lower than an electric guitar, you might have some volume issues.
just adding an electric cabnet, give you more speakers, noe the capability to play and electric clearly.
if you still wanna use the cabnet, go out and buy a head unit, it doesnt have to be top of the range Marshall equipment, but if i were you i would.

good luck.......

I've come up with some of my own songs for acoustic guitar, and I don't know how to add music for a bass player. I want to jam some of my own songs with people, but how can I write stuff to include bass players?

For example, say I write an easy I IV V blues progression in G major. What tips should I take into account for the bass players out there?

I would say to stick with the root notes and maybe the fifth notes or octaves to keep it funky....but ignore any color tones (7th 9th etc). So you'd write G C D.

Most players read tablature or you could just leave it as G,C,D

Most bass players are pretty good at hearing the song and picking up on the correct groove. Just make sure they know they key of the song and let things just fall in place.

I'm an absolute beginner when it comes to guitar, and I was wondering whether to get an electric guitar or an acoustic guitar. I plan to play electric guitar for the most part, but i need to know which is easier to learn on.
Thanks!

Any guitar that you will enjoy playing will be suitable to learn on. There are some advantages to acoustic though:
1. You can't hide bad playing with distortion - you'll have to get better.
2. You won't annoy your family/neighbors with an acoustic when you play sour notes while learning (or playing the same thing over and over and over). You could play unplugged but it wouldn't sound very good.
3. The action on an acoustic is usually bigger, which will force you to learn to play better.
4. You don't have to lug around an amp to be able play.

Of course, if none of these things concerns you, then get an electric - you're going to learn fastest on something you enjoy playing.

How long did it take you to become really good at playing the electric guitar, roughly how many months/years?

I've asked my Music Theory Professor this question, and truthfully it varies greatly. I have been playing 6 years and started teaching guitar when I reached 5 years, and from all the different people I've played with I have come to one conclusion. First let me define what a "professional musician" is. A professional is someone who excels in what they do as a job, a professional musician is someone who get's "Paid to Pay". So basically anyone, who is getting played to pay the electric guitar is a professional musician. If you want to know what a "Good Professional Musician" is, then it is someone who can read music "proficiently" on their instrument, and play with other musicians without trouble. On average, if you practice, 4 hours a day, for 2 year's, you could be "good professional guitarist", 3 hrs, a day, 3 years, so on and so forth. The key here is, "Paid to play" I teach 12 year old's who could own the guitarist from My Chemical Romance, but they are not professionals.

I've been playing acoustic guitar for a year now, and about three months ago I got an electric guitar. But its a used, cheap, and horrible quality yamaha electric guitar. So I want to get a new one. Because, I'm am literally addicted to guitar. And I play it twenty for seven, so whats a nice electric guitar, thats under like 350 dollars, that I can buy to last me a while.
Thanks

$350 well thats not too bad
1.a schecter c-1 plenty of used ones around for 350 great quality and playability for the $ **** other schecters ***
2.a mexican fender strat not the quality of a USA strat but close enough for a beginner ***
3. gibson epiphone models sg or les paul **
4. ibanez **
5. parker p44 or other parkers***
6. hagstrom **
I buy most of my guitars used because you don't loose any money when you decide to trade up. Ive actually built a collection (30+) over the years and invested very little money through wise buying and selling.
My favs: parker usa fly, usa fender strat, heritage blues deluxe, prs

stay away from the following

fender squire
samick
galveston
jay turser
peavey
bc rich
dean
danelectro
washburn
the cheap jacksons
yamaha
dillion
cort
