I just picked up the acoustic guitar last year for the first time ever. It’s a humbling experience combined with an occasional breakthrough.
And, like the occasional good shot in golf, it's the occasional breakthroughs that keep you on your seat playing.
Happy picking. I use to play continuously, but haven't played 30 minutes in the past 10 years. To my detriment.
The Mexican made Martin parlor guitar is actually pretty good after set up. Old timey Robert Johnson kinda sound. BIL bought one and I set it up/broke it in. You have
to like the OLD sound though.
Yeah, I have a friend interested in learning guitar, but he has no interest in playing acoustic stuff. I told him “Go start on acoustic anyways”. It doesn’t hide your flaws and sloppy playing like an electric does.
So, if you learn to play on an acoustic, then playing on an electric is a walk in the park. If you learn on an electric, playing on an acoustic is a nightmare.
