Which is the better guitar semi electric or acoustic?
This is what I experienced from my friend and I and we both play guitar. She plays electric and acoustic guitar (She likes acoustic the most). I play acoustic and its easier beginning with it (you can dominate electric guitar after playing the acoustic). But I think it would be better to start out with a basic acoustic guitar. An electric guitar would be the next level, for people who can afford one, and can play an acoustic. An electric guitar is also hard to carry(They're made of metal and plastic)and aren't cheap enough to get rid of or repair. The acoustic guitar isn't only just used for country( i hate country music... but i play acoustic!)it can be used for all kinds of things that you would probably want to know. Lets face the facts, you don't usually see an electric guitar player doing a solo on their porch. Electric guitar is better with more equipment and other people playing drums, e.t.c. But it just looks cool and has more varieties of sounds (with gear). So unless you are a hard-core rocker, or just think electric's better and cooler and want to take on these problems, go with the electric.

Should you start on electric or electric guitar?
I'm guessing you mean electric or acoustic. A lot of people will tell you that you should start on an acoustic, but I disagree. I think that you should start to learn which one you would like to play, and would enjoy playing more. It would keep you interested more, and you will find it easier to improve. I have only ever played electric, and I think if I'd started by buying an acoustic, I would have given up not long after starting.
Can you start out with an electric guitar or an acoustic guitar?
electric for two main reasons: easier to play you can get thinner strings which are easier on your fingers , the necks tend to be thinner as well so if you don't have big hands this makes things easier to start. You can lower the strings closer to the neck very easily on an electric as well. they are also quieter if you live in an apartment or noise is an issue lets face it none of us are Van Halen or Yngwie Malmsteen good the first year or two learn guitar tabliture fast and scales really do help

How can you make an acoustic electric guitar like an epiphone aj100ce sound like an electric guitar?
Well it depends on what you mean by sound like an electric guitar. TO make it sound like an Electric Guitar in one way you can just plug it in to an amp with distortion and get a sound much like a hollow body guitar. But that's pretty much all you can get out of an acoustic electric ================== One of the main things you'll have to do is restring the guitar with electric strings. There is no way even the lightest acoustic strings will sound remotely like an electric -- the attack is too metallic and hard, and they don't respond to bending and sliding like electric strings. Second is to find the right pickup. Aside from "hybrid" Guitars like the Taylor T5, acoustic guitars have pickups that were designed to sound like an acoustic guitar, so their frequency response isn't going to get you electric sounds. Thirdly, I'd try to stuff the soundhole with something. Feedback is a major issue when amplifying an acoustic guitar. Frankly, with modelling technologies, I think electric guitars playing acoustic parts with the aid of special electronics sound better than the other way around, acoustic guitars trying to play electric parts. Some guitars, such as the Epiphone Les Paul Ultra-II, the Peavey Generation Custom and the Parker Fly, have piezo pickups built into their bridges, and the Taylor T5 has both electric-guitar pickups and body sensors, designed to play both acoustic and electric parts well. An overdriven acoustic guitar can have a very interesting sound and work in its own way, but it won't exactly be replicating an electric guitar; it'd be creating its own identity.
