Guitars were developed from early guitar like instruments so he exact date of the first modern guitar is difficult to determine: * Thousands of years ago - tantar and sitar developed in India. The name guitar comes from the original name for sitar

* 3300 years ago Hittites played stringed guitar like instruments * 40 CE the Romans have a cithara which is brought to Spain and combined with the Moorish oud * 8th century CE - 6 stringed instruments in use in Europe * 12th century CE - 4 string guitars in use, some with central sound holes * 15th and 16th century the Spanish have guitar like, but lute-tuned, instruments * 1779 CE first six string guitars in Italy - built by the Vincaccia family * Modern guitars in place (look, size, tuning) in the 1850's

It is impossible to pinpoint an exact year when the first guitar was made. Precursors have existed for over 4000 years. What can be more properly called guitars have existed since at least the 15th century, and it took its modern form with 6 single strings in the 18th century.
