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.
An electro-acoustic guitar is an acoustic guitar equipped with built-in electronics—usually a pickup and preamp—that allow it to be easily amplified without losing its natural, warm acoustic tone. This makes it perfect for live performances, recording, or playing with a band, where projecting sound clearly is essential. Electro-acoustics offer the best of both worlds: the rich, resonant sound of an acoustic with the convenience and versatility of electric amplification. Many models also include onboard tone controls and tuners, giving players more control over their sound on stage or in the studio.
Here at GPAS we have everything guitar from music to guitars amps pedals and stuff. The guitar is a versatile stringed instrument played across countless genres, from rock and blues to classical and jazz.
Typically featuring six strings, it produces sound by vibrating strings stretched over a wooden body or solid frame, amplified acoustically or electronically.
We have Guitars in all types, including acoustic, electric, bass guitars and electro-acoustic, each offering different tonal characteristics and playing styles. For many, the guitar is both a tool of expression and a lifelong obsession—lending itself equally to raw power, subtle nuance, and everything in between.
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.
We have new and used Sire musical equipment available on our website for fast direct delivery from sellers across the UK & Europe.
