Here are some things to consider:  When narrowing down your choices, take a more experienced guitar player along with you for their opinion (they don’t have to be a professional guitarist to provide valuable insight). It’s best for beginners to start with an acoustic guitar versus an electric guitar, but going with electric first will not ultimately impede the student. Used guitars are fine, though there’s...
