Why does an acoustic guitar generally sound louder than an electric guitar without an electronic amplifier sounds?

that is a very delicate question. many have proof of creating the very first electric guitar. every now and then you come a cross a musical group of people that plays the guitar. many time they say that there great grandfather or grandfather invented the electric guitar. in norway there is a man that claims he made it. in southern usa there are several who claim they made it. in china there are 4 that i know of that say they made the first electric guitar. none of them have hard evidence of this though. they have the guitar but not when it was made. so many people have the same evidence that supports their claim that in the end people just say: lets just be happy we have it. its like asking who invented the wheel...


What is so fascinating about an electric guitar?

In a standard acoustic guitar, the vibrations of the strings are transferred to the body which vibrates the air around it producing sound. This is the final output. The sound cannot be modified or amplified without considerable noise. In a standard electric guitar, the vibrations of the strings are converted to electric signals using magnetic pickups. Since the output of an electric guitar is an electric signal, it can be amplified and/or altered. Effects like overdrive, reverb and chorus can be applied to the output signal. An electric guitar can be made to sound like an acoustic guitar using the necessary effect. Techniques like hammer-ons and pull-offs may be extensively used while playing on an electric guitar. Extended playing techniques like finger tapping etc is possible only with an electric guitar. Tremolo arms can be used with electric guitars. Definitely, an electric guitar is much more versatile than an acoustic guitar because of the fact that the output of an electric guitar is purely an electric signal. An electric guitar is cheaper than an acoustic guitar of the same quality because electrics are easier to build than acoustics.
