May 22, 2010 - PRLog -- When you hold and strum your electric guitar, it will create a loud noise and bring your eardrums a sound of volcanic eruption compare to an acoustic guitar just like listening with cartoon character running.  

Xaviera Arata Editor of the  Learn To Play The Guitar  website -- http://www.LearnToPlayTheGuitar.tv -- pointed out;

“…In acoustic guitar, when you do the plucking of the strings in the bridge, you will hear bit of music while the electric guitar, you can create different kinds of rock music because of electronic amplification proved to be the one of the most successful inventions in string industry…” Added Xaviera Arata

The pickups will serve as the electronic devices that can pick magnetic fluctuations within the area around the pickup bar which can be disturbed and will create a sound.  

Electric guitar was invented by Swiss Adolph Rickenbacker formerly known as Rickenbacher (1886-1976) in 1920s under National String Instrument Corporation and later after he met Paul Barth and George Beauchamp in 1931 they founded the Ro-Pat-In Company.  After a year, they produced the first cast aluminum versions of the lap steel guitar. Two years after, they renamed their company into Electro String Instrument Corporation but in 1953, they sold their company to F.C. Hall, the ancestor of Southern California electric guitar boom. That sale arrangement marked the end of Rickenbacker Electric Guitar and the beginning of another era.

Electric guitar production has many obstacles. Most of the people in that time did not have enough money for an electric guitar experience. And many musicians had to think twice if they can handle and play the frying pan-like electric guitar. Also the Patent Office cannot identify that guitar was an electrical device or a musical instrument.

There are 2 different categories of electric guitar effects.  (1) Signal reshaping and (2) signal augmentation. The first one can produce (1) overdrive effects, (2) distorted effects, (3) compression, (4) ring modulation and (5) pitch shifting. While the other one can produce (1) flanging, (2) phasing, (3) chorus, (4) delay, (5) echo, and (6) reverb.

“…The Electric guitar of Rickenbacker jammed from Hawaiian musicians in 1930s, to jazz bassists in 1990s to the most rock groups seen on MTV like Guns and Roses, Aerosmith, Metallica, Jon Bon Jovi and others, too many to mention…” Added Xaviera Arata
