Go to a music store and try both. Get whichever feels better. Musicians today use electric in country music and accoustic in rock sometimes. But for the artists you named (by the way, great taste in music:)), electric may be better.

go to Toys R Us…They have some fair prices and you can learn on one of them, then if you decide you like guitaring and can play well, THEN definitely get a Gibson Les Paul

You could always try a pawnshop or secondhand store and get one with character for cheap.

Squier Stratocaster or Telecaster is a really decent guitar for begginers… In acoustic, I would say marrufo, but it doesn’t get to the states.

squier guitars are for beginners. but maybe you should get an acoustic first

Well, if you are a beginner I would say an acoustic guitar. Guitar is not easy and you will have to practice for that electric guitar Jonas Brothers sound. My friend had started out with an electric and was pretty good.

I feel it is just harder to do with fingering for beginners.
