so i will have clasic guitar with nylon strings for starts to play with, havent seen the guitar yet because i have to travel to an other city to take it from her so will probably do on weekend.
I'm just aiming to learn the basics and most songs i will try to learn will be Nickelback, because its my favorite band and just awesome songs... So the guitar is mainly for personal use and just having fun,, Maybe in the future id buy electric guitar, but for now i have plans to learn with classic one i will get and then go to accoustic one.
one more question: Should i buy the uhmm plastic thingie to play the guitar? Or do with fingers? whats the diffrence and whats better for starters?
Its called a "Plectrum" or most commonly called a "pick" There is soft ones,medium ones,hard ones, Different shapes and sizes and you use different one for different styles of playing, I'd suggest try a medium one with a bit of stiffness but can bend a little, Since you want to play Nickelback you could possibly Google what Chad does when he plays perhaps.
