My brother plays his electric guitar for several hours every night at the loudest volume. I can hear the tight, screathing guitar stings all over our two story house. I even went outside to sit on the patio and could hear it. My mom doesn't care if he plays it that loud. She won't tell him to stop and I get a headache. Can this racket be casuing more stress than I know about?

If your completely annoyed by it you probally are stressing it alot. If you take the time to go outside to get away you are def. having stress due to the noise.

Okay, what I am about to tell you is not just my opinion. I did a good bit of research before I started playing guitar and this was of course the first question I had. There is an older mind set that beginners must start on acoustic. This is partially due to the fact that back in the day electric guitars and amps were very expensive but these days you can get a decent amp and guitar very cheap. A $200 electric will play pretty darn well, but a $200 acoustic is going to play like crap and probably sound like crap as well. Most all guitar professionals these days will tell you the most important thing is getting the type of guitar used in the type of music you enjoy. Any new guitarist will tell you that the hardest thing about learning guitar is making yourself practice and of course sticking with it. If you do not enjoy acoustic style music you will be much less inclined to pick up an acoustic guitar and practice. An acoustic may be fine when you are just working on your chords but once you start playing songs, if you are in to Slipknot it won't sound too cool on an acoustic. Some make the point that playing acoustic will make your fingers stronger. That may be true, but why would your fingers need to be strong enough to play an acoustic if you only want to play electric? That just makes no sense. If electric is what you like then that is what you shoud start on. I can't really give amp and guitar recommendations witout knowing your budget though.

Absolutely it could. I'd never be able to tolerate it. I pray that your mom will be more considerate of what this is doing to you. What some people don't understand when it comes to noise, especially stereos and electric guitars with amplifiers, is that some people just have a lower tolerance for noise. I know, I'm one of them. Good luck. I hope you don't have to move out.

I know what you mea. I used to be in the same situation. and yeah, of course anytime when you are in an environment where you are not comfortable you are stressed. Tell him to stop or put it lower. good luck

Your brother can use headphones so he doesn't disturb anybody. If that doesn't work maybe threats of violence?
