Electric guitars
Electric guitars were born to amplify
guitars in jazz but ended up igniting
the rock & roll revolution. Genius Les
Paul built one of the first solid body
prototypes which evolved to become
a key part of popular music in the 50s
and all the way until today!

Pickup
This transducer captures the mechanical
vibrations of the strings and converts
them into an electrical signal that can be
amplified and recorded. We use a singlecoil magnetic pickup, similar to the one
Danelectro introduced in the 60s.
Volume knob
You know what this does.
Nut
Along with the bridge, the nut
marks one end of the guitar scale
and sets the spacing and height
of the strings. In most traditional
guitars (including ours) this piece is
made out of cow bone.

+ Screws
Tuners, or machine
heads, are used to
adjust the tension
of the strings and,
in that way, raise
and lower their
pitch. Pitch gets
higher as you
tighten the string,
and lower as you
loosen it.

1
Tie a knot at one end of the
string. Pass the string through its
corresponding tailpiece hole.
Thicker
Thinner
3
Turn the tuner counter-clockwise
to tighten the string. Make sure
the string wraps downwards
around the peg.
4
Use the screws in the bridge to adjust its
height and set a comfortable playing action.
You want the string to be as close to the
fretboard as possible, but not close enough
to touch a fret and buzz when played.
