I've been playing over 25 years.... Go ahead and GET AN ELECTRIC GUITAR FIRST! I think its old fashion to think you need to start on an acoustic. I teach many students right from the start with an electric. Besides, you'll practice and play more often if you really enjoy the sounds you make. If you keep it up, there will be a day when you will want an acoustic. I have several, but I love playing electrics. Acoustics typically have a wider neck and stiffer strings, so they are harder to play... of course this factor helps you gain strength. Get an electric and learn some scales and chords.
