What BEGINNER GUITAR should I buy? A SHORT GUIDE with useful tips // feat. Session Music

What BEGINNER GUITAR should I buy? A SHORT GUIDE with useful tips. // feat. Session Music
This video was filmed aaaall the way back in March 2023 with Pät from ‪@silent-village‬ . It was created thanks to some ideas you guys suggested to me. I break down the most essential guitar models in this video and give you a short overview on what things you can focus on when you want to buy your first guitar! It doesn't feature ALL the knowledge of course, but I didn't want to overwhelm you within 15 minutes. If you have more questions, feel free to drop them in the comments below and I might be able to cover them in a new video! Feedback is always welcome.
But in the end I hope this short guide with equally short tips might give you an idea about what you first guitar should be: YOURSELF!
Feel it, it's like with Harry Potter and the magic wands. You will feel the right instrument when it's in your hands ;) Just listen to the call.
HUGE thanks to Zora from FOX NOIR FILMS for the edit

[@millbrook33]

My first guitar was indeed a black & white Squier Strat. XD I learned I don't care much for Strats, but I had no idea at the time. Buying your first can be so difficult. They all feel strange when you can't play. You don't know about setups. It's tough. Budget guitars are thankfully much higher quality nowadays, and there's amp sims and stuff. Much better options now, and super informative videos from you to help. :) This is going to be a very useful series for a lot of people. Great idea, great advice, and really fun.

[@richiefrancis8424]

Hi Jassy, Your video was truly incredible and very informative to those yearning to be play any instrument; not just guitars. It has often motivated me to try something new every day in my life. Hope to hear from you soon and rock on to the next level 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@rockoutmichigan]

I say this all the time. I love that blue Ibanez you play on stream sometimes.

[@metalpuppet5798]

A plus point of the Tele that many players of heavier styles miss is how well the sound fits in these styles. I once played one through a PRS MT 15 and it was heaven xD. No pedals no nothing. Do not sleep on Teles. And no I dont mean modded Teles with Humbuckers. The stock Fender ones. The one I tried was a sub 1000€ Mexican one I think

[@diede2308]

I can only second this!!! Long time owner of a Mexican Baja Tele and I use it for heavier stuff as well :)

[@frozenfury009]

I agree teles are incredible guitars my first one was the squire fender strat look was perfect only drawback didn't have the hi gain amp nor vst to play rock and metal songs lol had the cheap squire amp that scared the living crap put of me when turning on distortion for the first time LOOL but have changed ever since then lol funny how I look back anyways keep being awesome my friend 😊

When I started playing guitar many years ago, my first guitar was a Jackson King V with a Floyd Rose system. This drove me to despair, especially as a beginner. As a beginner I wouldn't do that anymore :D Back in the days it was alle for the style :)

[@HearGear]

You did a good job talking about the features of some of this guitars, even if a neck dont seem to much thicker compared side by side, even 2-3mm feels like a huge different when having the guitar in the hand, especially the wideness of the neck. I enjoyed the video.. thank you very much.

[@corvuscorax9265]

Weight, scale length, nut width, neck width, fretboard radius, neck angle (and related bridge height), and position of the bottom body cutout that influences how the guitar sits in the lap (think sg vs strat) are the main things I look for when buying guitar. Basically ergonomics needs to be right as they are mostly set in stone. Also it has to be black, white or red :)

[@kennethdarlington]

My imho: first guitar should... 1 stay in tune 2 intonate 3 fixed bridge 4 hss pickup config with hot humbucker 5 locking tuners

[@sharkey9]

For a beginner you might want to add - comfy/ergonomic while sitting and learning. Which almost always leads to a strat style body.

[@OldGuitarhand]

Tolles Video. Bei den meisten Punkten gehe ich absolut mit. Ich hätte vielleicht noch erwähnt, dass eine feste Brücke für den Anfang die bessere Wahl wäre, weil einfacherer Saitenwechsel und stimmstabiler. Vielleicht ein Punkt für zukünftige Videos. Und das Ende mit der Flying Kramer war herrlich 😂👍

[@ausderluft4850]

Floyd Rose Tremolo für Anfänger? Ich fand es unheimlich schwer zu Beginn das Gleichgewicht zu finden und dann waren die Seiten entweder aufgelegen oder viel zu weit weg vom Hals.

[@stefanschwarz1232]

Meeega cool, Jassüüü! Shared :)

[@hadeseye2297]

Any Ibanez with Wizard neck will do. I bought RGA42FM BLF for my third electric. Some will say it's a budget, or entry level guitar. I will say it is a beast. Most comfy guitar I had in my hands. 0:40 Bought this model as well as it is exactly same shape as mentioned RGA42FM BLF. Yet neck is a little bit thicker, but it had to be, cuz of the floyd bridge. Sire guitars are laso bang for buck. Cheap but great. Their LP Goldtop is ridiculous when it comes to neck and carving in body for better access to higher notes. It's basically plays itself.

I have a soft spot for les Paul’s because my first guitar was a Pawn shop les paul but super Strat and strats are beautiful pieces of work I’m looking at a squier Strat 60s reissue model and I love guitars in general I love Vs but it was harder to get comfortable because I haven’t played one in so long and when I had a V I sat really really low for comfort and for it to lock into my leg

[@nickk6109]

Being 6'4 with larger hands, I found that the strat neck is too small. I started on a '88 strat then for my 50th I designed and built my own guitar 7 string 28.625" scale through laminate which sits and feels right when playing. It's designed to play when sitting and has thick neck so I don't get cramp in the hands. Not a beginner guitar. The style of playing is also important - that thinner neck profile will give you a 'faster' lead but I'm more a complex lower riff/chord rhythm player. Good introduction.

[@JassyPabst]

thank you and thank you for your input! Hence it's so important to get the guitar in the hands and check it out for feeling comfortable with it :)

[@diede2308]

GREAT video Jassy🤘🤘🤘! Really informative for the people that want to start out, but don't know where to start in the maze of options in our beautiful world of guitar playing. If I may give one little extra tip for the people reading the comments: Try out the guitar both sitting and standing up! I once made the mistake of buying a great, great sounding SG type guitar and I could play very well with it sitting down. But one time I tried to play a 1 hour live set with it because my go to guitar had issues. The neck dive turned out to be TERRIBLE! I had huge cramps in my left hand afterwards and traded the guitar a short while later for a strat type guitar. So long story short....Try your instrument while sitting down and while standing😊.

[@karateman856]

Love Ibanez, have an old Roadstar II, plays great, may add a newer one someday but just don’t play that much anymore

[@frozenfury009]

😮 you should buy the genre black Gibson looking guitar xD lol although the intonation isn't the best if recorded right does have an incredible tone! However in seriousness I actually recommend the fender black and white telecaster guitar that's worth around $80-$100 u.s.d as that was my first guitar and the intonation/playability/ and the action as well as feel was perfect! And the sound was amazing however the only drawback if one doesn't have a high gain amp or software or vst would be rough playing rock and metal songs anyways showing support and passing by keep being rocking awesome everyone 🤟 😎 👍 😀 🎸🎶🥁🎤🙏🎼p.s correction it was the squire fender strat guitar that cost around 100 dollars but the kit is costly around 300 dollars 😅 expensive for beginners x.x

[@Plasmastorm73]

There is also the Epiphone SG model which is also a beginner guitar and comes in a starter package as well. Also the Les Paul Epiphone is NOT a GIBSON-ISH IT is MADE by Gibson. So are Kramer guitars for that matter. Just like Squire is made by Fender.

[@JassyPabst]

Yes, I guess this is just a language barrier where I couldn't express it in a way how it should have been ;) Of course Epiphone is Gibson , Squier is Fender and Gio Ibanez is Ibanez, but as the label is not Gibson, Fender etc. I just used that word.

If the Les Paul or the Epiphone was at scale 3/4, would would get that one before the full scale?

[@FjellViking]

Eine Sache muss ich hierbei Sagen, es macht keinen Sinn einen Anfänger eine Floyde Rose in die Hand zu Drücken. Für uns ist es Kein Thema damit um zugehen aber es Fängt halt bei den Saiten wegsel an ich Empfehle daher immer eine Feste Brücke . Du stellst klasse Instrument vor keine Frage. Aber ich Empfehle für Anfänger immer eine Ibanez Gio ist nicht zu Teuer und sind Perfekt für Anfänger . Die LTD ist dabei Teurer (auch sehr Vernüftig) Wichtig dabei ist geht in euren Local Store und nimmt die Gitarre in die Hand ✋ lasst euch 3 Gitarren hinstellen und spielt wenn man es kann jeden Riff denn man spielt bei allen drein denn selben Riff Fazit Ibanez Gio ist für Anfänger Perfekt Kramer und co sprengt bei vielen denn Rahmen des Geldes . Klar sagt man kaufst zu billig kaufst du öfters aber Ibanez hat sehr tolle Gitarre für Einsteiger . P.s Denoch ein Gutes Video

[@OldGuitarhand]

Das mit dem Floyd Rose kann ich nur unterschreiben und mit Ibanez GIOs kann man am Anfang im unteren Preissegment auch nicht viel falsch machen.

[@FjellViking]

@ bin ich auch der Meinung wenn man Sagt das ist egal wer Kauf dir Ne FL als Anfänger hat da nicht Viel Ahnung . Oder auch Untermarken von Fender is Genau so ne Sache die Dinger Kosten über 500€ und mehr Für ne LTD By esp ist die MH10 super auch für Anfänger . Das Problem was viele haben die solche Videos auch machen und das sehe ich sehr oft die Stellen immer Modelle vor die Über hunderte Euros kosten . Und anstatt selber mal darüber nach zudenken was sinnvoll ist für jemanden der Anfänger ist oder sich ein Instrument kaufen will das hier als Beispiel sieht Interesse an der Suqer hat denn preis sieht und sich denkt WTF . 😳 das macht ja null Sinn Ibanez Gios ,Harley Beton oder die LTD MH10 Serie sind Perfekt Einstieger Gitarre alles andere macht kein Sinn und auch nichts Mit Floyde Rose da hat der Anfänger kein kein Spaß dran und es ist Mühsam die Dinger Korrekt einzustellen (ich arbeite ja im Service Bereich e Gitarre Bass Akkustic (Wartung) Ich mach das schon viele Jahre aber selbst ich denk mir heute noch wozu brauch man sowas ggf. Unter ne Stunde um FR ein zu stellen und das Perfekt reicht nicht mute das mal Anfänger zu er ist sofort überfordert daher immer feste Brücke

Schade! Es gibt schon hunderte, wenn nicht tausende Gitarren-Kauftipp Videos auf Englisch, aber wenige in Deutsch! Naja, muss man wohl mit leben, daß auch eine deutsche Gitarristin nichts für ihre deutschsprachigen Fans übrig hat!

[@JassyPabst]

Das tut sehr weh zu lesen. Hier hinter dem Kanal steckt immernoch ein Mensch. Die Tatsache, dass ich mich aus einem Burnout herausgekämpft habe, um wieder Videos zu erstellen für meine Follower habe ich noch nicht so weit in einem Video erklärt 😉 Ca. 8% meiner Viewer sind aus Deutschland. Der Rest ist in aller Welt unterwegs. Da Englisch eine Weltsprache ist, versuche ich einfach so viele wie möglich zu inkludieren. Deutschsprachigen Content habe ich ab und an mal gemacht. Aber wer hat sich dann beschwert? Die anderen, weil sie dann nichts verstanden haben. Ich gebe meine größte Mühe mit den Videos und bin mir bewusst, dass ich es nicht allen recht machen kann. Schade, dass du versucht mich in so einem schlechten Licht zu sehen, weil du dich aus welchem Grund auch immer in der Position siehst über mich zu urteilen. Ich habe für jeden meiner Fans so viel übrig, dass ich jahrelang die Extrameilen trotz Vollzeitjob gegangen bin, um Entertainment for free zu erstellen - für EUCH! Jetzt denke mal ganz genau darüber nach, was deine Worte anrichten können. Wünsche dir eine schöne Woche.

Awesome guide video, I love the small jokes that where drawn 🙂 One small thing I have to mention though, the background music from 6:30 to 6:58 overlaps a bit too much with your voice and I had to concentrate hard to hear what you were saying. But all in all a great explanation video. Keep on the great work 🙂
