The phonograph, originally invented by Thomas Edison in 1877, is not an electric device; it operates mechanically using a needle that vibrates against grooves in a rotating disc to produce sound. However, later developments, such as the electric phonograph or turntable, incorporated electric motors and amplifiers for improved sound quality and convenience. So, while the traditional phonograph is not electric, modern adaptations can be.
