Electric Guitars

They are generally the 4 string models, but by and large, nowadays we find 5 string and 6 string electric bass guitar models as well. These Bass guitars have a solid body and comprise of electronic pick ups which is the inevitable part, as it is responsible to catch the various vibrations that are created due to the plucking of strings. These vibrations are transmitted to the amplifier by the pickups, after which the amplifier amplifies or enhances the sound and volume of the vibrations. Generally tuned in one octave lower note, the bass guitars have provision for extra strings which help guitarists to widen their playing range.
