names woody,
i'm just signing up for lessons and haven't been chosen by a guitar yet. still kinda looking. have seen the behringer setup at the local shop for 150. never heard of them before was hoping someone could shed alittle insight.
he also has a couple fender strats for 130.
i was thinking about starting acoustic but i really like the sound of a well played electric.
anyway hi, hoping to learn alot from you guys. looking forward to playing.

Hey, hey! Welcome too. :D

I think that most Behringer beginner's set ups or player's kits end up at the Pawn Shop in about 3 weeks. Nothing too sturdy & reliable about them, IMO. :shock:

Have you seen the Squier Strat Pak? I recommend that, but I try them personally to ensure a good adjustment, and make the shop tech set up the guitar, or don't buy. 8)

found my weapon of choice. it's a martin acoustic from '52.
was my grandfathers.
a couple guys on a motorcycle forum i'm part of suggested that I should begin with an acoustic. Seemed like pretty good advice so I went with it.
I've been working from the web so far. I've been working on some picking and fretting drills and a scale I've found.
fingers are sore but so far so good.
I'm trying to find an instructor but I work nights so that limits the availability.

Sounds like a good guitar to start with to me.
