Toronto has a great Jewish community and lots of job opportunities if moving ever becomes an option for you . <| sep |> I think the best beginner guitar is a Squier Stratocaster and a lot of people are going to agree with me . Two years ago I started guitar lessons and it ' s what my music school recommended . It ' s an excellent price and the best quality I have ever seen in that price range . The Stratocaster has an awful lot of versatility to it among all types of guitars . It gives you a sort taste or flavour of what electric guitars are capable of doing . From there it will help you decide which direction you want to go . And if you become dedicated to playing it will be a while before you outgrow it . I didn ' t buy my first ' real ' guitar until recently so that Squier Strat served me well for nearly two years , and it still serves me now until I decide to buy a regular Strat .
