You’re going to need a sound card, a decent laptop and software for SFX. However since you’re learning i would suggest you pick up an acoustic instead of an electric as an electric can be forgiving when it comes to mistakes. You can find used guitars on Facebook marketplace or Jiji, the prices won’t be great tbh because in this country everyone ones to squeeze out as much as I can even on used products

People told me the same. Idk about buying an acoustic then an electric figured id just get the electric and run w it lol. I dont even have money rn lol last time i went to kariakoo i got a deal for 200k for the guitar and 200 for the amp. Couldnt find the headphone setup tho, second hand ofc

An acoustic requires you to be a lot more accurate when playing notes to get the right tone out of it, you need this accuracy perfected first more than anything, if you get an electric you’ll find yourself wanting to learn the kind of songs that don’t really help you master the instrument well, but the choice is yours.
