You just want to learn to play the guitar? Or have study still use the loan to practice guitar? You should immediately set aside the content of the wallet to buy a guitar. However, as a prospective guitarist, ideally you should have your own guitar. Then the question arises, how can we know where the guitar is the best for us?
Yes, buy a guitar that requires special carefulness in work. The range of price and quality of the guitar is much more diverse instruments rather than music. Guitar branded the cheapest price around Rp 400 thousands, but a guitar hand-made works of a renowned luthier can reach tens of thousands of U.S. dollars! Carefulness in work is also needed to test / compare the quality of the guitar-the guitar that we will buy. For, it can happen, a guitarist that are cheaper it better rather than the more expensive. If we do not have this carefulness in work, it can be losers.
Most secure way of course is to ask for help friend who is more experienced in playing the guitar (or even better, a guitar teacher) choose other people accompany your guitar the most fit for you. Of course this is not always can we do. If the case, what can be made, we must "hunt" alone. For that there are some questions you need to consider.
(1) HOW FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE?
There are stories, a student would like to buy the guitar the guitar is quite good, but her parents objections. "Ah, cuma gitu aja guitar ngapain have expensive-expensive." The child can become the guitar that costs hundreds of thousands of rupiah (although they are able to buy the better). Ironically, the child just dibelikan latest mobile phone series. The price? Millions of rupiah. Situations like this can happen at any music school.
The quality of the guitar is important because it will determine your ability to be both in terms of technique or musikalitas. Of course, we really have to adjust to the needs and financial capacity us. If we truly a beginner, it will feel when you directly purchase over-the guitar that costs tens of million rupiah. On the other hand, nor too stingy. You certainly do not want to damage the finger sensitivity, hearing, and you musikalitas trouble using cheap guitar.
Can not be denied, in a variety of guitar music store branded Yamaha still dominate, especially for beginners types produced in Indonesia. The price ranges from hundreds of thousands of rupiah, depending on the type. If you are truly a beginner, it is advisable to select a guitar of this type. But should rather take the type of the above, do not be too down.
If you already are in the advanced, let alone advanced, certainly need a more serious guitarist. Music shops in big cities usually provide guitar types this medium. Brand include Yamaha, Prudencio, Aria, and so forth. The price on the two million to five million rupiah.
Well, for those who already are in a more serious route, either as teachers, players, serious pehobi, or collectors, they will usually need the guitar again in a higher class. From a semi-hand made to a truly hand-made. Class this is the price range that could reach tens of millions of rupiah, even in the top one hundred million rupiah. They are rarely sold in music shops in general. Most of the guitar-guitar class this purchase abroad or through the internet. Some of them buy it from the old owner. Usually the teachers of the guitar can be obtained information about who would like to sell or buy. Sometimes, we can also memesannya through a music store here.
What are the advantages of the guitar-guitarist expensive than this guitar, guitar for beginners? This is the same as the questions, what is the advantages of a hi-fi uređaja a sophisticated and expensive than a mini compo? Toh together to listen to the music? Or, what is the excess Kijang rather than a Jaguar? Toh same car and can run?
One thing is for sure, in terms of physical, guitar, guitar for beginners usually use plywood for bodinya. While the guitar is better to use wood. This is affecting the sound quality. You have to try and compare yourself to understand it. Wood is the guitar sound will be good if more and more frequently played. While the guitar sound of plywood so-so saja.Yang where your options, depending on the needs and contents of the bag. You know the most.
(2) physical CONDITIONS HOW?
Check all the parts and make sure no part of lax or loose. Guncang-shake to find out. If there is no sound whatsoever, it means secure. Check lap guitar chord in the head, working or not. See also the surface condition of the soundboard, or front and back of the guitar, whether there is a fracture or a graze.
Next, check the neck (neck) the guitar. Make sure that condition is straight, not curved. Way, lift the buttocks up to the guitar to the front of your face. Try the front of the guitar with your eyes. From there, Align your eyes to the head of the guitar. When the neck visible, the search for another guitarist.
(3) AS WHAT QUALITY voice?
Wrong with the neck, local guitar-lah. You can ask store staff for assistance menyetemnya. Not all play on each fret (blade-thin metal strip on the surface of the guitar neck), and all in all chord. Make sure all the right tone, not false, or disguised the other tone-tone. All this ideally not produce the same volume when quoted with the same strength. Do not to have not-not the weak volume, while not in the next fret much faster. To review this one is ideally made friends who understand the guitar, or at least understand the music, especially when you are truly blind music.
Be sure there is no one not broken (buzzing). Noise is usually not appear comfortable when bow string vibrates when fret. The causes can fret because that is too high or because the action (the distance to the surface string neck) is too meeting / less sprawl.
(4) NYAMANKAH fingers MY?
Guitar good condition, sound balance is all, nothing nadanya incestuous, and what else? Try to play. If not, try to press a fret and bunyikan notnya. Make fret-fret on the other. Do you have to press very hard to produce a clean tone? Or simply press it lightly?
The more weight you have to press, the more quickly the fingers tired when we play. Of course, we prefer a guitar that should not be pressed too hard. In addition to more comfortable, fingers can move more sprightly. Leisure is determined by the left finger action. About action, it is advisable to select the guitar that the action is not too thin. For, the more distantly, the larger the energy required to press the left finger chord. Nevertheless, the selection level this action is also sometimes depends on the taste guitarist. Because some are like the action a bit high to get membal a more responsive chord.
Chord types can also affect the comfort of the finger. Type string tension of a hard-labor require greater finger pressing instead for the normal-tension. Chord on, have been discussed in a special edition of. If you intend to replace senarnya, never replace the string with a nylon string metal. The string tension of the metal far more than the nylon string. Nylon acoustic guitar is not designed to keep out of the voltage.
(5) MY SUKAKAH on?
This is somewhat subjective. However, it can happen like this: all the above questions can be missed before well, in other words is the ideal guitar you find. Strangely, you can not love it. There are things that cause you less comfortable with this guitar. Do not force. Try another guitar again. Unfortunately if you have not purchased it but never touched. Therefore, there is a thought, look for the guitar is like looking for a mate!
What if we can not also find the ideal guitar? Try to ask the store staff issued stock-stock setipe from gudangnya. Often occurs, although the type and price of the same, the two can have a quality guitar that's much different. We will never know if you do not compare them. When all the stock has been tried and still do not have that good? The first option, type a search classmates higher than that. Of course, if there are funds. If not, you are forced to find another store to find more.
Any class you are looking for the guitar, requirements above apply. Of course, the more expensive type of guitar, growing requirements. On the guitar-the guitar top class, terumit assessment is subjective and the subject as well as the character voice on the men. For example, there are a number of characters that are often used: bright, cheerful, elegant, authoritative, dry-weight, soft-light, and many more. Penjabarannya difficult to be depicted with the words. Only with the guitar sound heard directly concerned we can understand it.
