Go with what sounds right. Failing that, get one extremely versatile guitar. My own 'musical way' is a bit more coherent and succinct. I started with a six-string. I wanted more options, so I got an... |

Don't be a guitarist. Be a musician with a guitar. With an understanding of music theory, you can easily discern the nuances in styles and play anything. Not just 'guitar music', either. |

Usually 2-3 months. Guitar strings are easy enough to change and replace. My bass, on the other hand... One string alone is $33~, so stuff that. It can wait. |

? You mean scale length? You really won't feel a difference for bends. 25.5" is 'standard' and, say, an Ibanez RG2228 is 27". The difference from fret to fret is tiny. 27" is pretty much just an... |

Do it. Do it. If you want it, get it. In my entire life, I've only ever played a seven-string once, and only for 10 minutes... Eight is better. |

You could pull off to a pre-bent note. Do it quick enough and it should blend in without hearing the bend, then you'll be effectively trilling the same note. Either that, you might want to play the... |

Yes. With a proper gauge for the appropriate tension, yes. It just depends on whether you like the tone or not. For the music I play, I wouldn't. I prefer the extra crispiness of a 27". |

Some just play other's music and build good setlists to get a night going well. I'd probably call them a sound engineer more than anything. Others actually make music. So yes. |
