Acoustic Guitar

This is Najib, also from 4A. Im going to talk about guitar, instrument which falls in music category. In music, there are many instruments used to make different sound in a pleasent way. And guitar is one of them which mostly used in many genre of music, particularly rock music.


Guitar have 4 main families which are electric guitar, acoustic guitar, electric bass guitar and acoustic bass guitar.the difference in between them is that electric guitar have a solid body and which do not produce sound if it is not connected to electricity and acoustic have hollow ones which magnifies the sound from the vibration of the picking up the sound from the string, but electric guitar are more easier to handle than acoustic guitars in short but now we are focusing on different parts of acoustic guitars.


Acoustic guitars are usually made from different types of wood such as spruce and are laminated before each part of the body joined together to get the guitar a nice feel on the skin anddoes not harm the wearer. This type of woods of a guitar usually decide how expensive it is.


The parts of a guitar are the head stock , neck and body. The headstock mounts six string tuners which are connected to six strings of a guitar and runs along the fretboard and end at the body after the guitar's sound hole. The neck is where fretboard sits which have maximum 22 frets.one fret is divided from the other frets by metal strip that raise a little on the fretboard. The fret is where guitarist can make different note of the same string. The body is where the strings are plucked by using finger or pick or strumming, hitting al the strings at the same time.the strings are named, from top to bottom, low E, A, D, G, B and high E.


That's all for now and pictures maybe uploaded to keep in touch.
