Yes!
Acoustic-electric guitars are acoustic styled guitars with a pickup either outside or inside the hollow body. You plug a cable into it like you would a normal electric guitar and it can be used through an amplifier to make the sound louder. They can also be played without being plugged in just like a normal acoustic guitar
well if you just started to play then you should totally get the acostic guitar but if youv'e been for ages get the electric guitar
I would just say let the acoustic guitar be, and buy a hollow-body electric guitar.
yes it is. search it on youtube or google. i put one on my friends acoustic and its awesome just install an electric guitar bridge on you acoustic.
Definitely, there isn't really a distinction between electric-acoustic and just electric amps. You can hook up your acoustic to any amp that has a clean setting, which is basically anything. Just don't plug it into a bass amp o_O
It is posible to fit an electric into an acoustic case. the case just has to be for a concert sized guitar. your electric may bump around a little in the case if its not paired up right though
No but its kind of weird that it happened. If I was you I was you I would take it back.
It will always sound like an acoustic guitar but the tone might b bad if u play it through an electric guitar amp. it would b better if u just buy an acoustic amp.
This is what I experienced from my friend and I and we both play guitar. She plays electric and acoustic guitar (She likes acoustic the most). I play acoustic and its easier beginning with it (you can dominate electric guitar after playing the acoustic). But I think it would be better to start out with a basic acoustic guitar. An electric guitar would be the next level, for people who can afford one, and can play an acoustic. An electric guitar is also hard to carry(They're made of metal and plastic)and aren't cheap enough to get rid of or repair. The acoustic guitar isn't only just used for country( i hate country music... but i play acoustic!)it can be used for all kinds of things that you would probably want to know. Lets face the facts, you don't usually see an electric guitar player doing a solo on their porch. Electric guitar is better with more equipment and other people playing drums, e.t.c. But it just looks cool and has more varieties of sounds (with gear). So unless you are a hard-core rocker, or just think electric's better and cooler and want to take on these problems, go with the electric.
You mean an electro acoustic (that's just what I call em but ya know)? That would be the pickup situated inside the body of the body of the guitar.
Sure you can but, it will not sound near as good as if you use an amp made just for acoustic guitars. Electric guitar amps all have distortion even if it is set and sounds perfectly clean to your ears....distortion is not an acoustic guitars friend. If you dont believe me go to a guitar store and plug in an electric acoustic into each amp...you will see what I mean.
There are six(6) strings just like any normal guitar of any type.
