If you buy something that you think sounds\looks great you'll be 10x more likely to pick it up and practice because you want to. That's the key, you need to get a guitar that makes you want to play.

One thing I don't think you've mentioned was what type of music you want to play. That'll make a difference to suggestions people will give you.

There's certain guitars that are more suited for different styles of music. The Ibanez RG that your son has (I own a Prestige RG) is built for speed and is 'slightly' easier to play fast than some other guitars as well as being suited for heavier rock\metal.

From what you've said I think you should defo get an electric. It's what you want to play. No point keeping your acoustic and have it sitting in a corner gathering dust.
I like Eagles type easy rock. America... Easy stuff. George Strait and Willie. Also like van halen, bad company, Aerosmith type too. Guess I like it all except Justin Beeber stuff....

Picked up Squier today to play around with ....Let's see where I end up. It's all fun..... If I could just get the **** C chord!!!!
