you mean acoustic, and because acoustic's/classic guitars are much harder to play. So you will learn how to directly hit your notes. I'm taking beginner guitar, a couple a months later, I was in a band. I play lead guitar. Although an eletric is infact easier to play, an acousitc will give you alot of practice. So good luck and all. EXAMPLE: Kinda like them movies where the main character would train to get faster by tieing rocks to his legs. so when he tooke them off, he was much faster and stronger.
