Learn to Play Guitar with MUSIC STORE TV

To make the first steps easier for beginners, MUSIC STORE professional produces ongoing educational videos on MUSIC STORE TV, providing guitarists with comprehensive video tutorials. As part of our 'Tips with Fips' series, Fips presents a new hit from the world of pop, rock, and folk on the guitar every month, guiding you step by step through the necessary chords and playing techniques. Fips uses reliable instruments and affordable accessories from Fame, Music Store, and Red Hill, proving impressively that a well-equipped beginner setup with great sound doesn’t have to cost a fortune!

Classical Guitar or Western Guitar?

If you prefer playing the acoustic guitar, our music store offers a wide selection of classical classical guitars with nylon strings and the western guitar, commonly used in modern styles such as pop, folk, rock, and blues, with steel strings.
The classical guitar features a flat, wide fretboard and produces warm, soft tones when finger-picked, ideal for classical and flamenco music. The western guitar, played with fingers or a pick, delivers a powerful, clear, and overtone-rich sound. Due to the higher string tension, western guitars have a narrower and curved fretboard, making chord playing easier.

Modern Digital Technology

For uninterrupted playing pleasure at home at any time—especially with high-gain sounds—or for studio and live performances, modern modelers are the top choice. They simulate the entire signal chain, including amplifiers, effects, speakers, and microphones, with authenticity. Whether as a floorboard, desktop interface, combo amp, or high-end solution like the Kemper Profiling Amp… there's a suitable device for every budget. Thanks to cutting-edge DSP technology, modelers deliver realistic guitar sounds that are impressive at room volume or through headphones. Live applications have never been easier! Try out devices from Kemper, Line 6, Roland, Boss, Yamaha, Zoom, Vox, Korg, or Digitech yourself!

Playing Electric Guitar with the Right Amp

The sound of an electric guitar is largely shaped by the guitar amplifier. MUSIC STORE professional offers a wide selection, from classic Fender, Orange, and Marshall amps to historically inspired combos and modern high-gain monsters from Mesa Boogie, EVH, Randall, Diezel, Engl, Fame, Laney, Blackstar, and Bugera.

Buying an Acoustic Guitar Amplifier

Electro-acoustic guitars can be amplified neutrally and enhanced with effects. Marshall, Yamaha, AER, Roland, Laney, Peavey, Acus, Schertler, Fishman, Behringer, and Fame offer specially designed acoustic guitar amplifiers tailored to the tonal characteristics of acoustic instruments. These provide inputs for both magnetic pickups and the more commonly used piezo-ceramic pickups, as well as microphone inputs.
