BASIC GUITAR 1

The guitar is a musical instrument with ancient roots that adapts readily to a wide
variety of musical styles. It typically has six strings, but four-, seven-, eight-, nine-, ten-,
eleven-, twelve-, thirteen- and eighteen-string guitars also exist. The size and shape of
the neck and the base of the guitar also vary, producing a variety of sounds.

The two main types of guitars are the electric guitar and the acoustic guitar (of which
the three main types are the classical guitar, the steel-string flattop guitar, and the
archtop guitar).
