If the electric guitar hadn’t been invented then the music world would have suffered greatly. Artists such as Eric Clapton and Carlos Santana would have had to find another career or go acoustic. The electric guitar takes the sound made by the acoustic guitar and amplifies it. It makes for a much stronger sound.
Learning to play electric guitar can be fun, exciting and challenging. It is good for the mind as well as the body. Playing the electric guitar can help hand coordination and motor control. It also helps to develop various parts of the brain. Encouraging you child to learn electric guitar is a great idea. They may want to start out on an acoustic guitar first but it shouldn’t be long before they can move up. They should also learn a little about electric guitars as well before they take the plunge with your money. Once you or your child has made the commitment to learn to play, the next thing you will need is to purchase an electric guitar. You want something suitable but not to expensive.

Once you have an idea of what you want, check your local classified ads. You just may get lucky. If this doesn’t prove successful then check in music magazines.
