Eis forElectric guitar
An electric guitar is similar to an acoustic guitar but instead of having a hollow wooden box under the strings to make it sound louder, there is an electronic device that needs to be plugged into an amplifier so you can hear the guitar.
Electric guitars are used in almost all modern pop and rock music. Unlike acoustic guitars and most other instruments, electric guitars don't just have one sound - they can be changed to have almost any sound you want, which is part of the reason they are so popular.
