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 Fender Stratocaster has been played by countless musicians across various genres and continues to be a favorite among guitarists worldwide for its timeless design, versatile tone, and legendary playability. It has undergone numerous iterations and variations over the years, including signature models for famous artists, but its core features and iconic design have remained largely unchanged, solidifying its status as a true classic in the world of electric guitars
