I am now extremely proficient on both instruments, so learning electric first does not hinder your ability to be able to play an acoustic guitar if you choose to do so. However, I did notice that the way you hold it is the same, the technique is the same and all of the chords I learned on electric could be easily transferred to acoustic. First, I needed to press down slightly harder on the strings, and second, since the neck on my acoustic was slightly wider, I needed to make a small adjustment with my left hand fingering. I had already made good progress on my electric, and soon realised that all you needed to do in order to get a good sound on the acoustic was to make a couple of adjustments. I actually started off playing on an electric guitar before I picked up an acoustic many months later. However, I don’t necessarily agree with this advice. Many people have said to me things like “I was told to learn on acoustic first and then move onto electric” or “I was advised that the first guitar I buy has to be an acoustic.” I can see the logic in this advice, as acoustic guitars are more difficult to play, meaning that becoming proficient on this type of guitar will make playing an electric easier. ![]()
