What kinds of guitars are there
1. Classical Guitar:
Classical guitar is considered as the mother of all guitar genres. In the
middle of the hat of its body, there is a round space called "sound
hole". The working principle is that when the strings vibrate, the air in
this sound cavity vibrates and makes a noise from here. On the guitar, shown
from above, type 3 strings are steel as thick strings and wound on silk. {0} is
a thin wire, it is nylon. It is used in music and flamenco genres.
2. Acoustic guitar: It
does not look like a classical guitar; however, it is fatter and flatter than
the classical guitar. Again, compared to the classical guitar, it is seen that
its handle is narrower and its strings are steel. Thick 4 wires are wound, the
other 2 wires are wound. The sound is clearer and harsher. It is played with Pena.
It is used in rock, blues and jazz music genres.
3. Electric guitar: It is
a type of guitar that works with the principle of converting the vibration of
the strings into an electric current through the magnetics in its body,
transmitting this current to the amp and converting it from the amp to a high
level sound.
4. Bass Guitar: It is not
like an electric guitar in principle. Its sound is 1 octave thicker than
typical guitars. There are different types of bass guitars, these are; 4
strings, 5 strings, 6 strings, 7 strings, 12 strings, fretless, and headless.
5. Fretless
guitar: Although similar to a regular guitar, it definitely has a lot of
different sound colors. Made to give a break. String instrument master Erkan
OÄŸur used this guitar, which he produced in 1976, to meet the needs of Turkish
music sounds. Over time, different models such as fretless electric guitar,
8-string fretless guitar, double-stem electric and classical guitar have been
produced.
6. Lap steel guitar: It
is a type of guitar belonging to the Hawaiian region, used with 6, 7 and 9
strings. Unlike other guitars, it is played not by pressing the frets, but by
touching the strings with the help of a metal that the guitarist attaches to
his left hand.
7.
7-string guitar: It is a type of guitar formed by adding 1 thin or thick string
to the guitar in addition to the 6 main strings found in the classical guitar
(from bottom to top; mi, la, re, sol, si, mi).
8. 12-string guitar: This
guitar type usually has steel strings. It is used in rock and move, people and
blues music genres.
9. Weissenborn guitar: It
is a type of lap slide guitar and was produced by Herman Weissenborn in the
1920s and 1930s. Less than 5,000 original instruments were produced. It is not
known how many have remained intact so far.
