This is just some general background information. The guitar is a string instrument constructed from wood and strung with either nylon or steel strings. There are three main types of acoustic guitars: the classical guitar (nylon-strings), the steel string guitar, and the archtop guitar. The sound of an acoustic guitar is produced by the vibration of the strings and is amplified by the body of the guitar.
Electric guitars were introduced in the 1930s. They require an amplifier that electronically manipulates the tone.(im saying amplifiers but really i mean speakers with amplifiers built in). the very first electric guitars had a hollow body but later solid bodies became more popular.
I personally prefer electric guitars, because there are many more possibilities. Some songs or riffs you simply cant play on an acoustic guitar.
