An electric guitar is a popular instrument similar to an acoustic guitar. Unlike an acoustic guitar, an electric guitar plugs into an amplifier and can feature single-coil pickups or dual-coil pickups.
A vertical, full-body shot of an electric guitar is highlighted by a dramatic black background. The multi-colored, heavily grained wood makes this guitar as much a piece of art as a musical instrument.
A close-up photograph of a solid body six-string electric guitar focuses on the pickups. Turn the top pickup to control volume, and the bottom two pickups to control tone. Create the unique sound you desire simply by manipulating these pickups.
