Hey guys, i got a guitar to, so I'm goning to start a rock group. Here's my guitar and I have learned a song already. I got it last Monday. How many strings does this supposed to have? It looks like there is a place for another one but no more came with it. Can i get another one that will fit this guitar? I don't know what it would take, and I don't want to get one that is to long or short. I know there is a lot of guitar players on Sup Forums so can you help?I also went to buy an aplifier but i couldn't fine where to plug that into this. Is that because it''s a Global? I thought thjat Global might match anything. Sorry, I don't know much yet but I'm goint to learn a be a band. Any help would be nice.

Is this bait

hmmmmmm just in case you're a dumbass

6 strings
Find them online or a music shop
That's a classical acoustic, so... not electric

probably bait

This looks like a Sup Forums problem. Sup Forumstards are not equipped with those types of problem solving skills.

no bait its a 5 string but it looks like there is a place to put a 6 string. but i dont' know what string to get. how long a string for that string should it be? it's the string in the middle. i know it's knid of a bad picture. so what amp shoule i get?

It is missing a string. Looks like it's missing the d string.
If it's missing one string it's best to replace them all. They are pretty cheap, so don't worry about it too much.
Ultimately you shoild go to the guitar store if you don't know what you are doing. Don't go to walmart, er I mean guitar center though. Find a local shop. They will be more informed.

After you get new strings/tuning, they will stretch a bit and fall out of tune. You will have to keep tuning it for about a week after getting new strings.

> I don't know what it would take, and I don't want to get one that is to long or short.
The strings are too long on purpose. After the week of stretching and setting is done you can cut off the ends. This way, all strings will fit all guitars.

Keep at it user. It will all make sense soon.

>goint a be a band
Wtf this is total BAIT
I am amused by this post OP, very funny

i went to a local guitar shop before i got this one. he said that i needed one with more strings, like 7 i think. i thought that they only made something like 4 to 6 but i wasn't sure so i didn't buy his. it was silver. i got thies feeling like he was trying to get one ovet on me. i did not like him.

so my new string will stretch. i'll keep tuning it for a week. ok, got it, thanks

OP, take a better picture of the guitar, maybe we can see WTF you are even talking about. It looks like half the picture is your thumb.

A standard guitar has 6 strings. You don't need a 7 string. Don't even think about that.

Also, I don't know if this guitar can take an amp. It's hard to tell with such a potato quality image. Look around the outside for a jack (pic related). if it has a jack any amp should do. They do make amps for acoustic electrics, however. These amps will bring out the quality of your guitar better. But this isn't necessary for a beginner. Just get a shitty amp and jam on it. Unless your guitar has no jack. Then keep jamming acoustically.

You can see that d string is missing.

ok now im tottaly confused. my guitar don't have ether one of thos ethings on the bottom. the hole or the one that sticks out. i'm going to go tomorow for another string, that fucker that sold me this beat me out of a string. do i need to have a hole and that other thing put on this or just the hole you're pointing at? i can play this without the hole can't i? it's making noise now, but do i need that hole you're pointing at? this is all so confusing. i'm avbout ready to give up already

Oh yeah, I can't stress this enough. If you are replacing one string, you should really replace them all. It will sound wierd having not only one new string among the old ones, but the string brand will be different. Also, when you buy strings the pack comes with 6 strings. You can't just buy one string.

Trust me man. Just re-string the whole guitar.

>> no shit Benderlict Chumbawamba

oh fuckity. all 5? these srtings have knots tied in them, do i have to untie the knots? that's going to be hard, can i like cut them off? if i cut them in the middle maybe thay would come off easily i think. it looks like if i did that they would just slide out both sides.
i'm sorry to be such a pain but i'm totatly lost here.

I mean, if that's enough to make you give up, hen I really can't help you. The hole that I'm pointing to in the image is called a jack. It is on electric guitars. You need it if you want to play with an amplifier.

The big hole on the front is for acoustics. It makes you guitar louder accoustically.

The small jack that I pointed to lets you plug into an amp and makes your guitar louder electrically.

Generally you have 2 kinds of guitar. Acoustic guitars, and electric guitars.

There are also acoustic electrics, but I am pretty much 90% sure that isn't what you have.

If you are starting a rock group, this is not he guitar you want. Get an electric and an amp with distortion. GL user.

ok, idid what you guys said and i cut one and it hit me in the eye. it's ok, but i don't want to do that agina

Yeah, man. Just take every string off of that guitar and throw them away. When you buy strings at the store you will get all 6 new strings. It will be fine. Strings are like 10-20 bucks for all 6. Don't sweat it too much.

one string

Don't fuckin do that you tard. Just loosen them off with the tuning pegs.

well i wont do it again, i pormise you. that fucking hurt

Holy shit you Sup Forumstards are really fucking dumb, I've never seen such an obvious b8 kek
> i got a guitar to, so I'm goning to start a rock group
>I have learned a song already

Y'all should anhero

what kind of striings should i get? i looked on the internet right now and there are tonns of different strings. this just gets worse as it goes. i'm about ready to sell this guitar

Goddammit OP, post a decent picture of the fucking thing without your thumb over half of it. Fucking potato

ill get my phone and make a new pic. sorry for a bad one

serisously guys, can i make a rock group or not? i don't want to watse my time if its to valubel

The thing to remember is that this is an art form that is old and has a lot of specialists with different preferences. So there are a million and a half options. Don't worry about that shit. Just get new cheap standard strings and play. Also, If your gonna play rock, you need an electric.

An acoustic is a great way to learn though, because it is harder. It's like learning to run with weights on your legs. Getting an electric will be like taking the weights off. Keep your acoustic and keep learning. Then eventually get an electric and start rocking.

I DGAF if you want to give up. You have to want it if you are going to play because guitar is hard. If you want to play an instrument that is easy, pick up the drums. That's what I play. I would argue that they are a lot easier.

That is the front of the guitar. Can you take pics of all the sides? (Top, bottom, sides and back)

thanks, that was really inspiring. i need more poeple that talk like that.

sure, give me a little while, my camera phone and my inertnet sucks

Making a rock group will almost inevitably be a waste of time. You shoild only do it if yu are enjoying yourself. You will not make money. Take it from me, I have been playing music for 14 years.

i think i will enjoy being in a rock g rooup. all those girls, huh? and i can have long hari like that guy in the led zepplins. i want to do that. im making pics they will be uploaded soon side and back and bottom
