“You can get an incredibly nice guitar that’s perfect for beginners for less than $500,” according to Sunir Patel, the owner and main buyer at L.A.’s Truetone Music.
While acoustic guitars can cost upwards of a grand, you certainly don’t need to spend anywhere near that much to find one to start out with - you just need to know what you’re looking for. “With just a few chords, you can play songs, even without lessons.” Plus, as musician Taylor Hollingsworth told us, inspiration is never far away: “Almost everyone has a favorite song that was played on guitar.” Not to mention: It’s a hobby that doesn’t require a sunny day, green fingers, or heavy equipment to enjoy. “An acoustic guitar seems to be a bit less frustrating during the learning phase,” says Ronnie Brooks, the online commerce manager at Nashville’s Corner Music. Enter the acoustic guitar, an instrument that those in the business say can be more familiar, and more satisfying, to a novice than other easy-to-learn ones like flutes and electric guitars. Whether you’re hooked on all the Instagram Live concerts musicians are doing, or inspired by the careers of recently lost legends like John Prine, Bill Withers, and Adam Schlesinger, you might be thinking about learning to play an instrument as a productive way to pass the time you’re forced to spend at home at home right now.
