How is the Electric guitar different from the Classical and Acoustic guitar?
Classical and Acoustic guitars are able to produce sound from its own body, while the Electric guitar uses electro-magnetic pickups (transducers) that converts energy produced by the vibrating guitar strings into electrical impulses that is fed to an amplifier. The amplifier then magnifies these pulses many times before the loudspeaker transforms them back into sound waves. Because of the mechanics involved, the electric guitar is able to produce a variety of sounds that the classical and acoustic guitar is limited to.
