Your First Electric Guitar Pack
Shopping for an electric guitar or any guitar for that matter is a tedious and time consuming process, and this is especially true for beginner's electric guitar.
Most of the beginners imagine themselves playing an electric guitar as it really makes a great sound and giving a "cool" posing. Though, spending a lot of days looking and checking for a lot of guitar stores would be a better help for a beginner to choose for the guitar. A beginner should know what amp to start with, what ancillary stuff needed and most important is the best price of the guitar. Let's embark one by one the tips on how to choose your first electric guitar pack.
Begin by putting together all the necessities of an electric guitar for a beginner. A local guitar store offers a pack with like bright axes that may or may not love you back when started touching the strings, all at different prices.
What are the means on figuring out by a beginner which guitars are best on their prices? First, start to get a guitar and take a look on how it is made; somehow it is just a piece of electric equipment that should be built to be on good service. The body, neck and fret board made of wood and not laminate or plastic is a sign of a good electric guitar.
The vibrato, or "floating" bridge is the one to choose for most novice guitar players. A fixed bridge does not allow you to bend notes using the tremolo arm or "whammy-bar". This type of bridge on a cheap guitar often leads to broken strings. There are smaller electric guitar models that are made up for beginners which do not consist of the usual twenty-two frets, but do not get this unless you are only about ten years old.
Considering the pickups, these are tiny microphones located underneath the electric guitar strings. Pickups nearer to the fret board produce a deeper sound while the pickups that are farther on the fret board produce a sharp tone.
On the price matter, usually less expensive models can get you years of musical enjoyment rather that the expensive ones. It can be overwhelming especially for beginners looking at all the different electric guitar models trying to make a decision as to what to buy.
Now, let's pay attention to the amplifiers. The amplifier affects largely the way the electric guitar would make a sound. Its power is measured in watts. The higher the wattage, the more of the volume.
You should try to get some idea of what is presented, for the question of which effects to get as for the most people start with trying to sound like their beloved lead guitarist. Keep in mind that there is no "pure" electric guitar sound. It is all changed to some degree. The dissimilar ways the guitar sound can be changed is called "effects". Effects like distortion, reverberation, and equalization give the guitarist more creative control over the sound. Some amplifiers have distortion built in because it is the most popular electric guitar effect. That is a brief rundown on what you must to start on a career as an electric guitar player, and if you see loads of practice lying around in the guitar store, pick up as much as you can afford.

Best Guitar Effects Processor?
I've been looking at the Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeller, but when I realised I don't have and kind of good solid-state OR tube amp a friend told me I might be better off with their POD X3 Live because it has amp modelling. I play a Gretsch 6136T White Falcon that belongs to my Father and I. I'm trying to figure out if the processing, or more specifically the tone colour of the Overdrives etc., is good enough to simply plug my guitar into the M13 and it into a PA? I'm not some kind of tone freak but my tone is important to me - is the X3 Live more versatile? Will either model give me stompbox effects the other can't? Is there another processor from say, Korg that would give me a good solution for the same or lesser price?
-JCS
Forgot to specify although I would've thought it was self explanatory... I wanna be able to switch under my feet, no rack-mount. Expression pedal or at least connection to an external one is a must. effects needed, not just a tone modeller
Let me state this clearly - I do not like Line 6. I feel that it tends to play very compressed, it doesn't do well in reproducing dynamics, and that the distortion tends to sound like a various combinations of bees and power drills.
That said - if you are going from a Line 6 directly into a PA, then you should be just fine. Any multifx with an amp modeler will benefit greatly from an amp/speaker combination with a flat frequency response, as it depends a lot on those upper frequencies to sound good... the same upper frequencies that a guitar speaker will tend to roll off.
If I was going for the simplest but most versatile setup I could get, I would probably go for one of the Boss GT-x models. I'm not a huge fan of multifx distortion, but I have a GT-3 and the clean effects are really nice sounding. Not as many amp models as the comparable Line 6, but waaay more EQ and effects options, including routing... with the GT-x series you can put the fx in any order, and with over 13 different fx, that's a lot of possibility! Reverb before distortion? Sure. Compression after your amp model? Sure. Etc.
The GT-x series also has a lot of programmability in respect to its foot pedal, etc, meaning that you can assign multiple functions to it. One of my favorite settings is to set it up so that it's normally all the way forward, but as I draw it back it starts adding more and more echo, and around halfway back starts adding phaser and delay as well. All the way back I've set up as a mute, just to have a quick volume killswitch right there.
So one of the GT-x models would be my preference. I picked up the GT-3 for 100$ used at Guitar Center.
Again, all that said, if all I had was a guitar, a pedal, and a PA, I wouldn't turn down the Line 6 either, as long as it wasn't the first POD (which I loathe fiercely).
