This wooden instrument has six strings stretched across its length. When you pluck or strum the strings, they make sounds. Inside the guitar, there's a hollow space that makes the sounds loud and warm. Over the years, famous musicians have played the acoustic guitar, making it a superstar in the world of music.

About one hundred years ago, musicians created the bass guitar while searching for a lower sound to groove to. It's like a regular guitar but with four strings, and the strings are thicker. Like electric guitars, bass guitars have pickups that turn the string vibrations into electric signals. These signals go to a special amplifier, making the low, deep sounds we feel in our music. The bass guitar is the secret superhero that adds the funky beats to our favorite tunes!
