Dumb Questions from a Newbie about equipment

midwest_surf_guy - 02 Nov 2005 20:53:51

Hello,
I am a huge instrumental surf fan, but lately I am thinking about trying my had
a surf guitar.
Except for s short stinit with a clarinet in middle school and a year pf piano
lessons I know
nothing about playing music(I forgot everything I learned in my younger years).
Now I am 50
and am thinking about trying my had at surf guitar. I know essentially nothing
about the
equipment or instruments. I have a history of not following thought with things
and don't
want to invest a ton on money in equipment, I am really skilled with repair and
electronics.
Should I start out with acoustic guitar and see how it goes? Should I start out
with electric
guitar? Bass, Rythm or lead? If electric what kind of amp for my situation?
Should I just stick
to collecting music by buying CD and LPs?
Thanks
Guy
