An Electric Guitar is as most Guitars a string instrument. Not too much unlike the other string instruments; violin, banjo, cello, etc. The difference is that the electric guitar was designed to send string vibration signals to be amplified far beyond their acoustic capabilities... in fact, they have very little to no acoustic sound. There have been other sting instruments that use the same pickup methods, though are quite uncommon or "unconventional" for their use, ie. the electric violin.
