Man, I wish I'd had that list to choose from in 1980! Just turned 12 and got an old classical guitar for my birthday. Actually, the classical guitar has nylon strings that, while they are callus-producing, they aren't like bronze-wound acoustic strings, or even electric strings. They're less harsh on your fingertips.
But, I would encourage anyone to start on acoustic. Acoustic guitar allows you to express your abilities anywhere and it doesn't require a battery or wall socket. There is a transition and a getting-used-to when you switch from acoustic to electric, but I think the transition is easier than the other way around. The volume is more adjustable on an amp than it is on an acoustic guitar.
All of the choices will have their benefits. I took private lessons for a few months, but I just had/have a natural ear. I got bored with the instructor and taught myself. It took longer, however, than it could have, but I was impatient and hard-headed. But, I had the mimic ability down-pat. I "heard" what I wanted to play. That is actually somewhat essential in the level of development that anyone will exhibit with a musical instrument. I wish I'd had other players close-by who played as much as I did, because you learn things they picked-up and you share yours. Unfortunately, where I lived, or at the time, there weren't a lot of guitar players.
THIS IS IMPORTANT: Learning to play any instrument is similar to learning a new language, with a little twist. Your brain is now teaching your hands to communicate through the guitar,
like it taught your mouth and voice to communicate when you learned to speak. But, you already know the language in your head, you just have to teach your hands to manipulate the strings to reproduce what your mind "hears" through the instrument. You can HEAR the music in your head, and the music is the language. If you can simulate a guitar riff, or solo, chord progression, or anything a guitar does vocally (if you can mimic what you hear, basically, using your voice), then it's just a matter of time and patience and practice to get the sound reproduced by using the guitar. It's a lot of memorization and aural vocabulary. If you can hear it, remember it, and then repeat it, then it's just a matter of time. After a while, just like learning to talk, it becomes second nature. Playing guitar (or any instrument) is just communicating through the instrument instead of your voice. If you can sing in-tune, with decent time, you'll be okay. You don't have to sing "well", just good enough to be understood.
You Tube is probably putting some instructors out of business, or hurting their future clientele. It's hard for me to be objective NOW as to which way is best or most efficient. Try each one. I would try You Tube first because 1) it's basically free and 2) it's essentially the same as an instructor being there and you can pause and rewind them. I'm not familiar at all with Rocksmith.
