week 8 free post

The guitar industry is a really big industry in the world. The instrument “Guitar” has a long history and there are so many types around there. Today I will introduce different kinds of guitar, and functions of different kinds of guitar.

The first guitar that I’m going to introduce is “Acoustic guitar.” This kind of guitar is really popular and it has a common name called “Wooden Guitar.” Most people are familiar with this guitar. It used to play country music. There are two kinds of strings can be used in this guitar--- nylon and steel. The sound of this guitar is really light and acoustic.

The second guitar that I’m going to introduce is “electric guitar”. This guitar gave people an impression of rock. That’s true because this guitar is really good at metal sound, jazz and rock. This guitar has a composite material and only steel-strings. This kind of guitar also has some types. For example, in order to play jazz, I may use “Archtop “type, and if I play rock and metal, I may use “hard shape” type. I believe that most people know the band called “Green day” there are two main type of music they played. One is punk rock, and another is light rock. Resonator guitar is the type of electric guitar that they use when they play light rock. The sound is more acoustic than normal electric guitar, and it’s really big.

The third type that I’m going to introduce is not really normal. Most people may not seen it before and it’s really hard to play. It’s called “twelve-string guitar.” The only different between this guitar and acoustic guitar is the string. Actually, the twelve-string guitar makes the sound more enjoyable. This guitar is really expensive, and the skill requirement is really high.
