The best quality Acoustic-Electric guitars sound almost same as an unplugged Acoustic guitar but since the sound is captured by the piezoelectric pickup it can be amplified.

For metal or punk players (and also genre's that offshoot from them), a solid state amp won't be a bad thing, they sound very consistent and tend to hold up better to the abuse that driving amps that hard and loud tends to cause.

Electric guitar chords are EXACTLY the same as acoustic guitar chords. There is NO difference. ... Some chords sound better on electric than acoustic and vice versa. The only difference between is that electric guitar chords are amplified, and acoustic chords are not.

Jay Turser makes a very decent guitar for low cost. The sound of both my acoustic and my 300 rival a lot of the guitars I have seen or tested for sound quality. ... And even though I did not pay much for them, I find that the quality of the way they are made, as well as the sound make them valuable to me.

Pros & Cons of Acoustic Electric Guitar With an acoustic, you're limited to static movement on stage (in front of a mic), inadequate sound projection in large areas, and limited acoustic, harmonic overtones. While the last reason isn't a bad thing, an acoustic-electric guitar does offer more sound options.

An electric guitar works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. This means that an electric guitar has electromagnets in its system which generate magnetic fields. Apart from this, an electric guitar has an amplification system which amplifies the sound waves generated by the guitar's string.

Electric Guitar. The main difference between an electric and an acoustic is that one can be amplified and the other can't. Electric guitars tend to look a little complicated due to the electronic switches on them. However the core features of the guitar are EXACTLY the same.

The truth is, electric guitar strings will work just fine on an acoustic. There's no reason that nickel guitar strings are any better or worse than 80/20 bronze or phosphor bronze. It's just a different feel.

It that's you, I'm going to recommend a budget of around $500. This means electric guitars around the $300 range and amps around $200. Serious acoustic guitarists can look to guitars upwards of $500.

Electric guitars tend to have lighter strings, a smaller body, and thinner necks, whereas acoustic guitars have a heavier body and a thicker neck to to support the tension of heavier strings. In terms of sound, the pickups and amplifier of an electric guitar enhance the learning process as they project the sound.

EMG pickups lack definition for high gain tones/sound muddy. Granted, there's nothing wrong with passive pickups (I prefer them myself), but EMGs definitely do not have an issue staying clear and punchy for high gain tones. Just listen to the Killswitch Engage albums recorded with EMGs.

Electric guitars are easier to play. The strings are lighter and far more comfortable than acoustic guitars. One key aspect which makes electric guitars so appealing is that they are a lot smaller than acoustic guitars, so it does make learning more comfortable.
