Made in the USA or designed in an American style, often associated with qualities like craftsmanship, heritage, or a particular sound linked to American music traditions.
Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.
The fingerboard—also known as the fretboard—is the flat, narrow surface on the front of a guitar’s neck where your fingers press the strings to create notes and chords. It’s typically made from hardwoods like rosewood, maple, or ebony, each offering a different feel and tonal character. The fingerboard plays a major role in a guitar’s playability, influencing everything from comfort and speed to tone and response. Features like inlays, fret size, and radius can vary, making the fingerboard a personal preference for many players—it’s where the music truly comes to life under your fingers.
A left-handed guitar is specially built for players who strum with their left hand and fret with their right. Unlike simply flipping a right-handed guitar, a true left-handed model has reversed components like the nut, bridge, and controls, ensuring proper intonation and playability. They’re often harder to find, with fewer models and colour options available, making the hunt part of the journey for many lefty players. Despite the challenge, playing a guitar that’s built specifically for your dominant hand can make all the difference in comfort, technique, and expression.
