Hi peeps!

I'll be in a band consist of 2 'guitarists' (It's actually 2 people that's just started on guitar... but...), a relatively good drummer plus a beginner keyboardist.

Now I understand that generally a bass player is needed in a band but none of us could accomodate that because:
1. We don't have the money for bass guitar and amp.
2. We still have to learning our respective instrument.

I'm planning to use my acoustic guitar, while my friend will be buying an electro-acoustic.

As said, we're inexperienced, unskilled but we should be quite dedicated so we'll be needing some input.

1. What style of music should we really looking to play with our 'band'?
2. Does electro-acoustics go well with effect-pedals and what kind of AMPS should we be looking to get?
3. Can a regular keyboard substitute the bass guitar? If so, are there any effective keyboard substitute for a bass guitar that's cheap and easily obtainable?
