Guitar - Basic Info

Hello everyone...!!

I’m back with a crispy article on “GUITAR” on my lazy blog Sharma’s Singoholic..!! :p

The GUITAR is a “Plucked stringed” instrument..

To keep it simple there are just two types of guitars.

1.     Acoustic Guitar

2.    Electric Guitar

Acoustic guitars have hollow bodies and six or twelve strings. Plucking the string produces vibrations that are amplified by their hollow bodies.

Electric guitars usually have solid bodies and six strings. Pick-ups placed under the strings convert their vibrations into electronic signals that are magnified by an amplifier, and sent to a loudspeaker where they are converted into sounds. Electric bass guitars are very similar in structure to electric guitars, and produce sound in the same way, but have four strings and play bass notes
