Acoustic: The string vibrates - this causes the sounding board of the guitar to vibrate at the same frequency (note). The velocity of a wave through the soundboard is higher than that of the string, so the soundboard causes sounds much louder than the strings. Electric: The string vibrates, which disrupts the magnetic field of the pickups. Whatever frequency a string vibrates at causes a different magnetic flux. An electrical current can be induced by a change in magnetic flux. This current is sent to an amp, which produces the sound.

Do the frets on a guitar make the sound?

The frets don't nessicarily make the noise, but the tension on the frets as you get higher on the fretboard is what makes the noise. It's the strings that make the sound. They vibrate when you pluck them producing a sound. The sound is amplified in the body of the guitar(acoustic guitar). The frets enable you to vary the length of the strings thus making them produce a different sound.
