Justin Harper Things Ti Th ngs To D Doo What kind of guitar hero are you? Choosing the right instrument can be tricky if you are just starting out in the world of guitar. There are two main differences between styles of guitar bodies. Sound is energy, just like rays of light or the power that turns on your porch light. Molecules of air become charged with vibrations or waves that carry the sound until it disappears. Guitar strings can be plucked to create these vibrations and the manner which sound arrives to your ears can vary depending on the guitar you are using. The acoustic guitar body has a sound hole located in the center of the guitar, just below where the strings are plucked. Vibrations travel into the sound hole that acts as a resonating chamber. When the sound waves travel out of the sound hole, they are amplifi ed from bouncing around the body of the guitar. In other words, the body of the acoustic guitar makes the sound louder. Contrary to the acoustic guitar, the electric usually has no sound hole. Electric guitar strings are made from metal and use electromag- netic energy to trans- mit sound. The pickup, located in place of the sound J. Justin Harper hole, is a device made from a magnet wrapped with a coil of conductive copper wire. When the metal strings vibrate, the pickup sends the electric signal to an amplifi er, which makes the sound louder. So which one do I need? Both guitars have their benefi ts. Acoustics can be played without the use of electricity, making them great for outdoors, small venues, or quiet personal use. Electric guitars must use amplifi cation and can be more versatile in situations where high decibel levels are con- cerned. You can also manipulate the sounds of electric guitars with effects like distortion or 'wah-wah' pedals. For the begin- ning guitar player, I would suggest starting with the acoustic. Although it may be harder to fret, the precision and muscle memory you build learning the acoustic guitar will make you a stronger electric player, should you decide to cross over. If you are curious to hear how electric guitar tone is manipulated with pedals, let Jimi Hendrix explain it in this week's video found at: www.shelbyinfo.com/music.
