There are certain things that we need to take care of while purchasing Guitar. Unlike other instruments Guitar is relatively cheap instrument. It is possible to buy any Guitar however it is far more sensible to go to a specialist stockiest.
We need to check the size of the Guitar before purchasing it. Ensure that the fret board is wide enough and body of Guitar should be full sized. If that is fit to your body structure then the most important part to consider is the “tone” of Guitar. You might have to enlist the aid of assistance here. Make sure that it produces very little buzzing sound while playing. Look at the back of the Guitar. It should be divided into two half’s to produce balanced tone.
Next thing we need to take care of is “Action”. The distance between the strings and the fret board should be up to your comfort. Press the string down to check it. Make sure that it should be comfortable to you. This is very important to check as it actually makes Guitar easy or difficult to play. It will be probably easy to play near the head of the Guitar however it is a bit difficult on the 12th fret. Make sure that the back of the fret board is flattened to play it smoothly.
Then we need to consider the technical aspects. Check the tuning keys and try to turn these keys to get the softness. Make sure that the “bridge” of the Guitar is glued properly. Move the fingers on the edges of the fret board and check that there should not be any rough surface that might cause interruption.
Remember every Guitar is different, even those of identical make. Check it up to your satisfaction. It is highly recommended to buy your first Guitar with the assistance of professional as it has a great impact on your learning.
