Tuners

There are mainly three types of Tuners no matter what stage you are at. If you are not good in tune, irrespective of how great you play you are not going to produce great sounds.

You can check how close you are to chromatic pitch by plugging in electric guitar or play into built-in mic with Handheld Tuners. Budget friendly tuners are available in market ranging around 10$ to 25$ by well-known manufacturers KORG and DeltaLab.

Clip-On Tuners detect the pitch using contact microphone through guitar’s vibrations as they are directly connected. These tuners are best for live settings to adjust the volume between the songs. You cannot play any other instruments or sing with them. They are best for home jamming sessions or travelling.

On the last we have Pedal Tuners, which are comparatively expensive than the other two but for a good reason and many famous artists trust these tuners.

Amplifier

If you are working on an electric guitar, you need to have an amplifier. When choosing an amplifier, there are different factors to consider (this will require a separate blog post). High quality amplifiers ranges from 100$ to over 1000$. When purchasing an amplifier, keep a quarter or two-inch power cord. The main thing is to make sure it is a TS cable.

Capo

A capo is a device that is usually used to quickly change the pitch of an open chord, but it can also be used to perform some great melodic techniques. They are great for the hood, but should not be heavy on your pocket. Unless you choose the cheapest option available, this is usually a one-time investment, and even so, it should not cost more than $15-25.

Spare Strings

It’s really essential to have few sets of spare strings as sometimes the strings become dull and less efficient, in both the case it is important to have fresh set of strings in spare. It is recommended to try different measures until you find the one that suits you (lighter sensors are easier to pinch, heavier sensors feel warmer).

Strap

If you plan to perform, a strap is 100% essential, and even if you don’t, it’s better to have a strap for extra support as it will comfort you. There are various patterns of straps available in the market you can choose as per your personality to stand out in the crowd.
