More about Electric Guitars:

Electric guitars   

Electric guitars have been around for many decades. The first, made back in the early 1930’s were very rudimentary modifications of acoustic guitars by jazz musicians desperate to “up” the volume.

Indeed their concept has been developed over the years, but still relies on that same science as long ago. A steel string vibrating over a magnet causes electromagnetic induction and a resulting electrical signal can represent the sound. This signal is amplified, these days by highly efficient integrated circuits, but until the 70’s valve driven amplification was used. The sound of valve amplification is unique and valve powered amplifiers are still popular. Nowadays the electronic amplifier is more reliable and cheaper to buy. The guitar pickup on the other hand has not advanced much beyond better design shape and positioning.

Variety show 

The number of different color and shape designs is immense and far outstrips the acoustic guitar market. Electric guitars are available in a multitude of colors, often superimposed with modern art and decals. The range is immense. On-body advertising is also now common as are “signature” versions which are usually replicas of a famous player’s favorite axe.

Neck styles are available in a number of widths and profiles. Headstocks on electric guitars have long since held the trademarks of the maker. In addition headstocks are shaped either to match the body shape or to denote a particular manufacturer.

Design options 

From the classic Les-Paul shape to the well-known flying-V, electric guitars are the powerhouse of rock music since the mid 1960’s. Until then, jazz musicians were the most common users. The main differences in sound from electric guitars are related mostly to the pickup design, although other factors such as wood choice also affect tonal characteristics and particularly, note sustain. String choices can also affect tonal range. Solid-body or the jazz hollow-body style also impacts the tone.

Pickups come basically as either ‘humbucker’ design, or ‘single-coil’. There are a bunch of variants in between that make all sorts of claims as to their great sound – buyers must listen and choose their own favorite. Pickup positioning is important too. Strings sound more ‘tinny’ when strummed close to the saddle, when played closer to the fretboard, a warmer sound is produced.

Guitars with more than one pickup have them positioned to make use of this tonal range, and a switch is usually available to choose between pickups whilst playing.
