You live in Ireland, probably pounds... So I would estimate about 50 pounds for a reasonably electric guitar, that's WITHOUT amplifier. You definately NEED to find one that DOESNT have bad knobs so your strings constantly need to be retuned. That ruins your learning process. but 50 pounds should be doable I guess, since my friend bought a reasonably not-detuning one for 75 euro's. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's definately harder to learn than my instrument, the bassguitar, since you need to learn chords. I guéss you need a teacher to do that, but I don't know, never tried. It seems hard enough though. I personally did not teach from anyone but my favourite cd's, and it has made me pretty good for the three years I've been playing. But bass is a lot different from guitar of course...
