The world would be more harmonious if only there were more musicians.

If you're a beginner yes it is advised to start with an acoustic. You can get clean sound on an electric as well but I would suggest you buy an electric when you are good at playing and spending all that money becomes worth it.

If you are a beginner.. better buy an acoustic guitar. Once you learn and advance to an intermediate level then you may buy an electric guitar
