Which is good -acoustic or semi acoustic?
An acoustic guitar produces sound via the "sound hole" cut out in the wood under the strings on the main part of the guitar. This is a nice acoustic sound.

This is an acoustic guitar that has the same kind of volume boost built in, as one would find on an electric guitar. It is important to note that the sound made with a semi-acoustic is still quite different from an electric guitar, even though one would need an amp to play the semi-acoustic.

An acoustic guitar is hollow, with a sound hole, allowing it the reverberate the sound, and making it louder. An acoustic guitar is always louder than an electric. (When the electric has no amp.)

Do an guitar have strings?
Yes. There are two kinds of strings - nylon strings for the classical style of guitar, and steel string for the acoustic and also the electric guitar. It is most common for guitars to have 6 strings, with the lowest toned string at the top of the guitar (when held in playing position). There are, however, 12 stringed guitars, where each of the 6 strings has another string next to it which is tuned an octave higher than its counterpart. This gives a very full, lush sound, such as the sound of the acoustic guitar in The Eagles song, "Hotel California" or in David Bowie's "Space Oddity".
Why does an acoustic guitar generally sound louder than an electric guitar without an electronic amplifier sounds?
