Obviously? I wouldn\'t say acoustic is any much easier...I started on acoustic because that\'s what I happened to have, but it\'s really a different instrument that requires different skills. Of course, once you can play one you can play the other but if your ultimate goal is to learn eclectic than I wouldn\'t start on acoustic simply because you think it will help you \"progress\" or anything. I would recommend you get use to playing acoustic though...it\'s a nice instrument...very simple and portable too.

here\'s a pic of my new bass: http://www.woodbrass.com/images/woodbrass/EBTBVSBH1.JPG
It\'s almost as sexy as Gerard Way! lol

well, yeah kind of. The bass I\'m holding and the red guitar on the left aren\'t mine, but I have a black guitar and a bass that ARE mine which aren\'t in the picture. You\'re the second person to ask, I should get an updated picture with my real collection...
So you\'re learning......... guitar? What\'s your weapon of choice?
