If you have a guitar or other string instriment, then this tuner is really awesome! I bought one for my boyfriend this past christmas and he uses it constantly.

Snark tuner for the acoustic guitar. Lightweight, clips on the neck, and only $10 at Amazon.

I use a Snark chromatic tuner. Probably the best tuner I've used. This one is good for guitar. There's also the SN-2 which works for many more instruments, but costs a bit more.

> You'll also need some kind of tuner.

and I'd recommend a snark tuner

You want a Snark. I prefer to tune by ear (use a tuning fork for the reference) but I got a snark for noisy environments. Best I've ever used.

I have a tuner that attaches to my guitar, what I did was bend the string until it changes notes on the tuner. Then I repeated that same feeling over and over again until I got the muscle memory down.
Tuner in question.

You're right, the instrument does not factor in as much as one's interest. Totally right.

Of the packages listed, the first Yamaha one for $159 looks very nice. You'd definitely get more than your money out of it. Yamaha has a great rep. for longevity.

I own this Rogue for $79 and love it to death. I taught Grade 6 and students were allowed to play whenever they wanted - it never got any rest from students or teachers.
I'd get this Snark tuner, this guitar strap, these strings, this string winder, and finally this stand. Oh, and these thin picks.

That gives you a grand total of $119.24. I've either owned or used all of these products and can vouch for them.

Now, the other thing I'm thinking of... there's this instructional book on Google Books, where you get the first 64 pages for free. It's a great resource, but the name escapes me. If I think of it, I'll write back. I hope this helps.

Get a Snark, they're small, back lit, and cheap as hell.

In the videos I've seen that show it, it looks much much more precise. I use one of these bad boys. They are waaaay better than the 2011 RS tuner and you can just always leave it on. Hopefully that won't be necessary in the new game.

u/eleven_eighteen · 2 pointsr/Guitar

get a snark. cheap and tiny but they work fine for just playing at home. then you don't even have to worry about being plugged in.

Snark: http://www.amazon.com/Snark-SN1-SN-1-Tuner/dp/B003VWJ2K8

It's fast and accurate. It's all I ever use now. Tried 2 different Boss and a Korg.

u/anycleavers · 2 pointsr/Frugal

Go down your local pawn shop and get an inexpensive (not cheap) acoustic guitar. Bring someone who knows something so you can avoid the garbage that's out there. I bought my first acoustic that way for $70 and still have it. Head on over to the guitar reddit, there are tons of resources available for free. Get a stand and a decent tuner. Keep the guitar/stand in the room you spend the most time in, then it's easily accessible, you can pick it up anytime, if just for a few minutes. Tune it up every time before you play. For a hundred bucks, give or take, and some stick-with-it-ness, you can have a lifetime of enjoyment.
Here's a decent, cheap tuner.

bkev covered mute strings well.

Regarding online tuners, they are fairly accurate.

If you want to buy one, I've been using Snark SN-5 which is easy to see in bright lights, and is only about $10.

but you can get by with the Snark SN-1 which is a little over $8 just fine.

With these, the battery lasts a long time, and you don't have to go online to tune-up. Just clip it onto your guitar and go.

There are plenty of others as well. Check them all out.

It's worth talking to him and seeing which body shape he likes best. You can find Strat, Tele, Jazzmaster, Mustang, SGs and even Les Paul styles for about the same price. Starting with something that you really like and identify with can make a huge difference to keep motivation at that harsh beginning.

Anyway, here's my recommendation:

  • Amp: Fender Frontman 10G 10W - $59.99

    You can't really get a good amp and it won't make that much difference at the beginning so it's best to focus on the guitar for now. I started with an amp similar to that one (maybe even worse) and it was perfectly capable for years.

  • Guitar: Squier Affinity Stratocaster - $155-$179.99

    A very solid choice for a first guitar. You can get the Telecaster version for about the same price but that specific Strat is on sale today at MF so it might be worth picking it up.

    Here you also have the choice of spending a bit more and going for a $180 $200 guitar, such as the Yamaha Pacifica, the LTD EC-10, a Jackson JS22-7 or even a Jazzmaster, which is my personal favorite choice. All these other choices depend drastically on the style of music he likes to listen and play. That's why it's worth talking to him beforehand.

    Anyway, considering you're going for the first strat, here's the other recommendations to finish the package:

  • Elixir .09 strings- $9.99

    Some people love them, other hate, but it's fact that they're great for people starting out and even just playing/practicing in their bedroom. I use these as my every day strings. They don't rust and contrary to regular strings that will last you 2-4 weeks, these last several months.

  • Dunlop Pick Pack Variety - $3.99

    Just so he can test and choose between several picks.

  • Planet Waves 10ft cable - $7.99

    Just a solid and simple cable.

  • Snark Tuner SN-1 - $9.15

    Fantastic, accurate and reliable little clip-on tuner. I've been using these for years and they're very well regarded.

    Total: $246.11


    EDIT: Of course that after I finished typing this whole post I went to check the value pack kit posted here and realized that the first Squier kit is basically what I selected plus a nice discount. Well, fuck me... I'm still keeping the post up.

    By the way, if you do get the kit at $200, consider getting a setup done to the guitar for about $40~$50. All guitars usually require it but it's much more important on these cheap ones. They usually play like garbage out of the box and to be playable they require a basic setup.
