The guitare is a stringed musical instrument that is played by plucking or strumming its strings. It typically has six strings, although variations exist with four, seven, or more strings. The body of the guitar can be made from various types of wood, which affects its sound quality. Guitars are commonly used in many music genres, including rock, jazz, and classical. There are two main types of guitars: acoustic and electric. Acoustic guitars produce sound naturally through their hollow body, while electric guitars require an amplifier to enhance their sound. Both types are popular among musicians and are often used for solo performances or in bands.
