electric guitar

An electric guitar is a type of guitar that uses pickups to convert the vibration of its steel-cored strings into electrical current, which is then amplified. The signal that comes from the guitar is often electrically altered to achieve various tonal effects prior to being fed into an amplifier, which produces the final sound which can be either an electrical sound or an acoustic sound. Devices commonly used by guitarists are meant to add distortion, wah, equalization, tremolo, and phase shift, amongst others, in some cases radically changing the sound that is emitted from the amplifier. Despite its traditional association with rock music, the electric guitar has long been used in many popular styles of music, including almost all genres of rock and roll, country music, jazz, blues, ambient (or "new-age"), and even contemporary classical music. The instrument's distinctive sound and intimate connection with many legendary internationally-famous musicians has made it the signature instrument of late twentieth-century music. Specialized steel guitars are also in use, although they are to be considered a different instrument. This distinction has important consequences on claims of priority in the history of the electric guitar.

La guitare électrique est un type de guitare pourvue d'un corps le plus souvent plein (solid body) et qui produit des sons via des micros captant et transformant les vibrations des cordes en signal électrique. Ce signal peut ensuite être modifié par divers accessoires comme des pédales d'effets avant d'être amplifié et converti en signal sonore par un ampli de guitare, ce qui augmente significativement la puissance et la richesse de l'instrument.

Eine elektrische Gitarre (auch E-Gitarre oder Stromgitarre genannt) ist eine speziell zur elektrischen Tonabnahme entwickelte Gitarre. Sie setzt im Gegensatz zur akustischen Gitarre nicht primär auf einen akustischen Klangkörper zur Verstärkung der Saitenschwingungen. Hierdurch können prinzipiell andere Bauformen erreicht werden, die vielen E-Gitarren unter anderem eine besonders leichte Bespielbarkeit verleihen.

La chitarra elettrica è un tipo di chitarra in cui la vibrazione delle corde viene rilevata da uno o più pick-up. Il suono viene quindi prelevato all'uscita dello strumento e convogliato in un apposito amplificatore affinché il volume dello strumento sia reso udibile. Appartiene alla famiglia degli strumenti cordofoni.
