The Electric Guitar - A Primer
Sound created by string vibrations transformed into currents of electricity and then amplified is the basic definition of an electric guitar. In the 1930s the first incarnation of the electric guitar appeared, although it was nothing more than electromagnetic-transducers attached to a hollow arch-top Acoustic Guitar. In the 1940s Les Paul invented the Fender, the first modern electric guitar.
The BodyThe standard electric guitar design has a solid wood body that has mounted pickups and controls (although some do have resonance chambers that are semi-hollow). The type of wood used in the body's construction is just as important as that of an acoustic guitar (acoustic guitars use wooden soundboards, which is the wood of the body through which sound is vibrated). Note: the right handed and left Handed Acoustic electric guitar both use soundboards in their sound reproduction. The electric guitar's body wood will establish the resonation. Dense woods produce rich sounds, such as ash, mahogany, and alder.
The Bar of the GuitarString tension variation is controlled with a metal bar attached to the bridge. This bar (also known as the Vibrato, Wang, Whammy, or Tremolo Bar) tilts the bridge back and forth.
Fingerboard and NeckMaple-wood is the standard material used in the electric guitar's neck construction. The fret or fingerboard is usually made of maple or rosewood is attached to the front of the neck. When the musician wishes to change the pitch of the sound, he or she will press the strings into the fingerboard which changes the vibrating-length. Bright pitches come from maple fingerboards. Timbres that are dark are produced by rosewood fingerboards.
The PickupsThe 'voice' of the electric guitar comes from the pickups. These are magnets wrapped in wire and their purpose is to capture the vibration of the strings and convert them to an electrical signal that can be amplified. Each string vibration disrupts the pickup's magnetic field, which creates the electrical current.
Pickups fall into two different categories:
The Single Coil PickupSingle Coil Pickups consist of only one coil and they tend to create a bright sound. The drawback to using a single coil pickup is that it is susceptible to having a background 'hum.' Ambient sound and signal created by electronics that is caused by changes in the magnetic flux of the pickup is the root cause of this hum.
The Humbucker PickupThe sound distortion caused by single coil pickups gave rise to the invention of the dual coil, or Humbucker, pickup. These are made up of two coils that are wound as mirror images and have opposed polarity within the six magnetic coils. The ambient sound is cancelled out before it is amplified, thus the hum is eliminated. Humbucker pickups have a thick sound and some guitars allow the option of switching between the two pickup types.
Guitar StringsElectric guitar strings have various windings, alloys, and gauges, all of which factor into the sound of the guitar. All electric guitar strings are made of metal and the right handed electric guitar is strung high E, B, G, D, A, and low E while the left handed electric guitar is strung upside down.
The String's AlloysMost commonly used are strings made of steel because they produce vast volumes and tones that are brilliant. Stainless-steel nickel plated strings have a subdued tone. Nickel strings have a muted-round sound and are best used in rhythm and jazz.
GaugeThe thickness of the string is the gauge. Those who wish to play the guitar fast will need thinner gauged strings because they are easy to bend. Strummers who want vast volume should use strings that are medium of gauge. While hard to play because the strings don't bend very well, a full vibrant sound can be had with strings of a heavy gauge
WindingStrings have 4 different types of windings: ground, flat, round, and nylon taped. Rejected by fast-players because the strings 'grab' the fingers, the most common winding is round. Fast players who want a tone that is subdued prefer flat windings (also known as ribbon winding) which have a smooth, almost oily, surface. Electric bass guitars are the only instruments that have ground windings which are round windings that have a machine polish. Those who want their electric guitar to sound like an acoustic bass guitar will want to use strings that are nylon taped. Nylon taped strings have any of the three afore mentioned windings and are coated with nylon.
One must do his or her homework when finding an electric guitar for sale. The prospective buyer must take into consideration the type of music he or she plans to play and how comfortable he or she will be with the instrument. Each guitar has an individual sonic-personality because of the various combinations of pickups, wood, and string.
