I think that the vibrations of the strings in the box of the guitar is what causes the sound to come out. That is why it is hollow in the box and that is why paint on the box of the guitar dampens the sound of it.

Does all acrostic guitars sound the same?

I assume the question is about acoustic guitars. But the answer is no. Acoustic guitars sound very different to someone with a trained ear. To the uninitiated yes they will sound very similar but the make, the wood it's constructed with, the year and the strings on a guitar will make it sound very different from another. Some guitars have a bright clean sound others a more earthy and almost organic sound. That's why when buying one find your price range and play at least every single one they have.

Electric guitars are guitars that are solid, semi hollow or hollow bodied that rely on pickups and amplifiers to amplify sound rather than any acoustic values.
