The guitar is a stringed instrument, classified as a chordophone, with anywhere from four to eighteen strings, usually with six. The sound is projected acoustically via a hollow wooden or plastic housing or via an electric amplifier and speaker. The instrument is usually played by strumming the strings with one hand, while the other hand presses strings along ferrets. These are elevated strips that change the tone of a sound. The modern guitar probably originated in medieval Spain.

Interessant. Mijn man speelt gitaar; zowel een Spaanse akoestische als elektrische. Hij heeft zelfs een reisgitaar: in te klappen tot zo klein dat hij in een gewone reiskoffer tussen de kleding kan.
