The guitar wasn't actually officially declared invented until 1929, but Les Paul had been attempting to perfect amplification since the early 1920's. It was George Beauchamp who first invented the electrically amplified guitar and Adolph Richenbacher (Rickenbacker) first manufactured them in 1932. Les Paul then had the chance to make some of the better electric guitars in 1936.

The first electric guitar was the Rickenbacker A-22, better known as the "Frying Pan," invented in 1931 by George Beauchamp. It was a steel guitar, and used two horseshoe magnets that arched over the strings as pickups. While this is officially recognized as the first, as he was not granted a patent until 1937, he could not make the only electric guitar until a patent was granted, giving other manufacturers plenty of time to create their own electric guitars and think of ways to get around Beauchamp's patent. Production of the A-22 ran from 1932 to 1939.
The difference between an electric guitar and an air guitar is a electric guitar is an actual guitar and an air guitar is imaginary. An air guitar is when people pretend to play a guitar with hand movements. An electric guitar converts vibrations of its steelcorded strings into electric current. These currents then go to a amplifier to make them louder.

It is not known when the first guitar was made. This is in part because the guitar evolved from other string instruments and was not an invention. Many cultures used instruments recognized as precursors to the guitar. These include, most importantly, the lute, originally a one string instrument which was plucked and is known to date to Egyptian times. The lute was improved and had strings added during the Renaissance. It was during the Renaissance that the term guitar originated as a family of strung instruments, these instruments were significantly different than the modern guitar. The guitar as we know it developed in part with orchestral string instruments, the lute as well as with ethnic instruments such as the banjo and ukulele. The development of the classical guitar in Latin America marks the development of the guitar as we know it. The dimensions, internal bracing and number of strings make it the platform from which the modern guitar took it's form.
