This is from my week 16 of my Revision 3 show!
What are the Parts to the Guitar?
The guitar is broken into 3 sections -The head, the neck, and the body.
Head = AKA as the headstock. This is where the tuning pegs are
Neck = Where the fretboard is. The notes you play on guitar are along the fretboard
Body = The fat part on the guitar. This is where the bridge/pickups/soundhole are
Tuning Pegs = On a 6 string guitar there will be 6 tuning pegs. These can be twisted in order to make strings higher/lower
Nut = The thick ‘Fret’ at the beginning of the guitar neck – its’ technically not a fret, rather it holds the string in place and is the beginning of the strings length
Frets = metal bars along the Fretboard/Neck
Strings = Usually wound of copper. In standard tunings of EADGBE.
Soundhole = AKA as an ‘F’ hole. Found on acoustic guitars, this takes the place of pick ups, so the sound can be amplified without electricity
Pickups = Found on electric guitars (and some acoustic guitars). This literally ‘picks up’ the sound, then runs it through an amplifier
Bridge = The end of the string. The bridge rests on the body of the guitar
