The guide is structured into two main sections:

  1. Equipment
  2. Learning

Equipment

The Equipment section is all about gear and is broken into 4 parts:

I used to work as a guitar specialist at the downtown San Francisco Guitar Center, which is one of the chain’s largest stores. So I’ve helped a ton of people pick out their first gear.

Most of the information presented here is targeted for first-time buyers. However, this section can still be helpful for those who already own their gear as it’s packed with a wealth of practical information that will benefit you as a guitarist.

Throughout this section of the guide, you'll find lots of product recommendations and links.

For transparency: many of the links will be affiliate links because I’m not sponsored by any of the brands. This means if you make a purchase through the link, I will receive a very small commission at no extra cost to you. If you find value in this guide, please consider subscribing to the channel and make your purchases through an affiliate link! 🙏🏽
