Guitar - The guitar is a stringed musical instrument. It is generally played with the fingers of the left hand[1]. The right hand plucks the strings with either the fingers or a plectrum, (guitar pick). The sound is produced by vibrating strings, which in turn resonate the body and neck.
Guitars have a body (hollow in acoustic guitars, solid in most electric guitars) and a neck. Typically, a headstock extends from the neck for tuning.
Guitars may be acoustic, electric (i.e. with electrical amplification) or both.
Guitars are used in a variety of musical styles. They are made and repaired by luthiers.
Guitars are widely known as the primary instrument in rock music.

Electric lap steel guitars, which include the first commercially successful solid body instruments. These were originally marketed as Electric Hawaiian guitars. There are two types: one that sits on the musician's lap and a second version that has legs and was called a console version.
