Packs
Find electric guitar packs to get started with the guitar and accessories you need in a single purchase. Depending on the model, they may include an amplifier, gig bag, cable, strap, tuner, or picks, so it is worth carefully comparing the contents of each pack. Check out how to choose yours.
HOW TO CHOOSE AN ELECTRIC GUITAR PACK?
An electric guitar pack is especially practical if you are starting from scratch and don't own amplification or accessories yet. The key isn't picking the bundle with the most items, but ensuring the guitar itself is right for you and that the set includes what you actually need to practice.
WHAT SHOULD A STARTER PACK INCLUDE?
Electric Guitar
This is the main element. Pay attention to playability, size, and pickup setup. If you're still unsure which model to pick, check out our beginner electric guitars.
Amplification
Many packs include a practice amp or a compact amplification solution to hear the guitar, but not all do. Always check what amplification system comes with your chosen bundle.
Accessories
Cable, gig bag, strap, tuner, and picks are some accessories that may be included. Contents vary from bundle to bundle, so review the product page before buying.
COMPLETE PACK OR BUY GEAR SEPARATELY?
| Electric Guitar Pack | Buying Separately | |
|---|---|---|
| Best if... | You are starting from scratch and need multiple items | You already own some gear or want to handpick every component |
| Advantage | Simplifies your initial purchase | Greater freedom in choosing your guitar and amplifier |
| What to check | Exactly what is included in the set | Component compatibility and total budget |
If the pack you're interested in doesn't include an amp, you can complete your setup with an electric guitar amplifier. You can also add a gig bag or a tuner separately if they aren't included.
WHICH GUITAR TO CHOOSE WITHIN THE PACK?
You shouldn't choose solely based on the number of accessories. To start out, the guitar must feel comfortable and offer a tone suited to what you want to play. In this category, you will find packs with different pickup configurations—from SSS and HSS to HH—as well as scaled-down options for younger students.
