Acustic electric guitar or hollowbody electric guitar?

Question

I'm not sure which to get can you help me?

Answer 1

if youre indecisive you might want to go with the acoustic electric and see which one you like better, eventually, when you get better, you would want to get either a good electric or an acoustic.

Answer 2

It depends on what music you want to play. A hollowbody electric like a Gibson 335 is great for blues, rock, or jazz because of the pickups. It's got an almost endless variety of tone, from fat to biting.
An acoustic-electric like an Ovation LX Balladeer doesn't have the tonal possibilities that the Gibson has, but sounds so pure that it's a great insrument to own. It's great for fingerpicking country blues or folk music. And it's a lot less weight on your shoulder.
I'd choose the hollowbody electric because it's more versatile.

Answer 3

Depends on what you're going for sound-wise, and where you're playing...

Want an electric sound? Go for the hollowbody. Want an acoustic sound? Go w/ Acoustic/Electric...

Answer 4

If you are going to learn how to play a guitar you must buy an acustic guitar. If you already know how to play a guitar then this is up to you if you prefer an acustic or electric. But if you have enough money buy both but remember to learn how to play a guitar FIRST use the acustic.

Answer 5

Depends on what you're looking for. I never owned an electric (yet, im getting one for xmas). I love the sound of an acoustic though.

Answer 6

probably an electric. if you cant decide, get an acoustic electric. an acoustic with most of the options an electric has.

Answer 7
