What is a good acoustic-electric guitar for a 11 year old girl?

Answer 1

Any guitar that your 12-year-old will pick up and play! You don't have to be particular about brand or anything, but there are some acoustic JOM models that are 3/4 the size, making them a bit more user-friendly for the not quite full grown arms and fingers of a 12-year-old. There are plenty of used Guitars to be found; if the passion lasts at least six months, then gift the musician with his or her very own personal. Be sure to buy a guitar case. My 12-year-old has a back-up type case so he can cart his guitar to lessons, etc. It really helps! Electric guitars are hard on the newbie in that the strings are steel and much harder on the fingers. Enjoy.

Here is a great article about how to buy a guitar, it will be a great help.

Answer 2

You should see if he is able to cope with a full size guitar, if not then let the 11 year old try out either a 3/4 size guitar or a guitar with a full scale neck but with a smaller body. Go to a guitar store and let your son/daughter try some guitars out. It doesn't HAVE to be fender does it? Have a look round the stores and see what they have. You may find something you prefer and possibly better value for money.

Answer 3

I would get a full size guitar - if you are playing electric - that way you wont need to get a new one when you grow.

If you're playing acoustic I would get a smaller bodied acoustic, not a Dreadnought size guitar

Answer 4

If you feel that saving money because the player is a junior, then it doesn't matter and the girl may eventually lose interest as a result. If the girl has a natural talent and likes to have the best sound, then Ibanez, Epiphone and Ovation make some fine amplified acoustic guitars for around AU$300. The learning of music with cheap instruments does not help the player broaden their skills as much as a decent instrument would.

Answer 5

I'd go with a Peavey. I have a Peavey that had costed 102 dollars alone. But then you might need a beginner guitar strap which is about 6 dollars. If you get a small Peavey amp which is probably 1 foot tall, that is about 75 dollars. And finally, if you get guitar picks, some packages are around 3 dollars, but other packages vary in cost. But if you just want the guitar alone, the cost for a Peavey for beginners range from 100-200 dollars.

Answer 6

Something cheap, like a Squire or an Epiphone. Schecter makes a good, cheap guitar for a couple hundred. Go to Craig's List and find one with an amp for $100 or less.

Answer 7

I've used a full sized guitar since I was in 4th grade so i suggest that. If you have a smaller fame and small hands I could suggest a smaller guitar but...

Answer 8

A full size guitar would be best.
