acoustic has the added bonus of strengthening your fingers, 'cos they're 
usually strung with 12's or thicker.
I recommend for electric either a Mexican-made Fender Stratocaster or an 
Epiphone Les Paul.  they're two of the simplest guitars to figure out; after 
some experience you can decide if you want something a little more tailored 
o
a particular sound.
