Starting with a Guitar.?

I really have a ton of free time that I need to spend on thing more worthwhile. I used to play a guitar when I was little but I stopped when we moved and forgot almost everything.
I need to know what I need, first of all. Acoustic, electric, or acoustic electric?
If i get acoustic electric what else do I need?

I really have motivation to learn but I don’t have anyone close who plays guitar so I’m on the Guitar books a lot ( and youtube).

Thanks.

What do you think about this one?

I would go with an electric strat. The fretting on them is typically more forgiving than the acoustics, since the strings are a bit closer to the fretboard. Once you get back your basic skills, move on to an acoustic-electric (or just acoustic) to start practicing chords, strumming, and above all else, arpeggios (they get the chicks).

Also, try sites like ultimateguitar.com and programs like Guitar Pro (or Powertab) – they provide interactive lessons on honing your guitar skills and learning your favorite songs.
