I would definately say start with an acoustic. Once you've played on an acoustic, playing on an electric is like heaven. Mike inspired me to play. I taught myself, which has been difficult, so if you have the means, I'd get an instructor. Good luck!
the best way is to start with an acoustic guitar so that you can build up finger strength, also, learn some chords and scales and if you play with, interact with and watch a lot of other musicians that will really help
Iv been playing for a couple of years now and its only this year my playings started to really take off. I only started getting lessons a few months back and i have improved so much since then.
Like a cloud dropping rain, I'm discarding allllll thought.

damn right. ive been playing for 3 years but acoustic for only 1. the action is so high that going back to my electric is more comfortable than a kingsize bed with 6 pillows. i love my acoustic but it friggin kills my fingers
