cool,

I was having trouble pushing down hard enough to  hit the notes and was falling behind on the tunes. Thought it was just my bumbling fingures. Thanks for the input.

I've been playing an acoustic Fender for a couple of years now. I have lately begun to work on tabs. Which guitar is easiest to learn on, acoustic or electric?

SouthPaw41L ,

Thanks for the explanation, sometimes to get the answer in simple terms, you need to ask as to have no knowledge at all. I've been learning the acoustic guitar and played in the church choir for a while. Although no where an accomplished player, I had the old experienced music leaders help with theiory and chords. My lacking is in the rif and tabs playing. The church just didn't want to venture my learnings beyond the graces of good christian music. However, my glory days stem back to the 80's where electric guitars and big hair bands rule. As they say, you can get the man out of the 80's,  the 80's music rules and can never get the 80's out of the man. I plan on getting a practice electric guitar and want to learn tabs and rifs. I found a fender stater at target with an amp.what do you think?

Thanks for the info. very helpful

Target has a combo pack . Fender Starcaster Strat Guitar with amp for $199.00 with free shipping.I have a Fender Acoustic and this may be my first electric. On line is cheaper, at the store is $249.00

Is the rif in any way related to the chord progression of the song or just made up by what sounds good?

PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT EXACTLY THAT IS AND THE WAY TO PLAY ON AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR.
I see the term on many of the songs in this site. I played the guitar in the church choir, the chords are not hard to learn. But picking and following tabs has been a challenge.

I played a new Taylor 12 string in  the music store the other day. Had the best sound I ever heard and played. Is there any difference in playing the 12 vs the 6 string? Was my first time and I played it the same as a 6 as far as for chords.
