There is a wide spectrum of instruments that help in creating music, but the guitar is one of the most commonly used instruments in today’s world.

It is capable of accompanying vocals as well as self-harmonizing. This stringed instrument has been used in various styles of music. For example in 1920’s Hawaiian melody, the guitar was played with a metal slide to magnify the noise which was completely melody based. In this era, guitar players were seeking for a greater sounding guitar which led them in innovating the electric guitar.

It was the point in the early 1930s, George Beauchamp, a Hawaiian guitar performer & Adolph Rickenbacker came together with an innovative plan of manufacturing an electric guitar with the help of an electromagnetic device called Pickup. The electromagnetic pickup converts the vibration of its steel strings into electronic signals. The electric guitar is one of the very few musical instruments that has experienced such an impact on the evolution of music since the beginning of the 20^th century. The first commercially viable electric guitar was called as Frying Pan, an electric lap steel guitar which then commonly used in Hawaiian style of music.
