When I do practice, I just a cheap acoustic guitar first before I used my nice and expensive acoustic guitar.

Useful advice. My daughter is going to university soon and I think we will get a cheaper guitar and portable amp to save any damage to her normal one.

If you just wanted to jam along the corridors well an acoustic guitar is a little bit more handy but if you’ll be playing for lets say a school event with a full band then it should be the electric guitar with your amp.

you can also get one of those digitech amp modling pedals they have a line out for head phones. it is sort of like the pod that was mentioned above. I have one of the digitech pedals and they are really good. for playing through head phones, amp or into your computer. They really cool.

A good idea for a cheap guitar could be a fender squier. They are pretty good guitar for the money and sound really good. For an amp you might want to looking into I think it was called the roland cube. They are small and pack a nice punch.

Ooooh, great article!! I never even thought about this, and yet the information that you supplied totally makes sense! I think this will help a lot of students keep their sanity. I’m also a big fan of the toneports and the pods. They are just totally worth the small price. I’ve gotten so much good out of mine.

Very informative blog! I find this article helpful since most of my friends are busy and most often are not available for jamming sessions. I haven’t heard of POD GX before and I’m interested to learn more about this. Great equipment for guitar lovers!

Another strong recommendation i would make would be a hard shell case with a lock on. true most of these lock are flimsy but some protection is better than none.
