What is a definition of scale of guitar?

The 'scale' of a guitar refers to the average string length between the bridge and the nut of the guitar (this is the average length because intonation at the bridge means that not all the strings are identical in length from nut to bridge).


Is there a different kind of tuner for electric guitar?

"Concert" tuning is the same on standard electric and acoustic guitars: EADGBE. No one says you can't tune either type of guitar to something else. However, there are multiple types of electric and acoustic guitars, for example: - 12-string guitar (EADGBE, then EADG high octaves and BE unison strings) - 7-string guitar (BEADGBE, or EADGBE with high-octave G) - baritone guitar (BEADGB) - tenor guitar (CGDA, DGBE and other variations) - Nashville tuning (EADGBE, but with EADG as high octaves -- basically a 12-string without the "normal" strings) - short-scale guitar (eg. Tacoma Papoose, which is tuned ADGCEA)

What is a guitar scale?

It's nothing more than a music scale such as a Major, Minor, and Dominate scale. These are seven note scales that any instrument can play. As for a guitar scale, it's a diagram that outlines the fretboard (neck) of a guitar and shows all the notes to be played for a given scale at certain positions along the guitar neck. It shows the fingering (sometimes with numbers) to help you place the correct fingering as you play each note of the scale. Not all scales are seven notes such as jazz, blues, and pentatonic scales which can have more or less notes. Hope this helped better understand! The simplest way to understand a guitar scale, it is a eight step movement using single notes it can be played anywhere on the guitar.

Who invented electric Bass guitars?

The electric bass guitar in its modern form was invented by the American, Leo Fender, although a short-scale (30") solid-body electric bass guitar was invented and marketed by Paul Tutmarc, another American as early as 1937.

How was the electric bass guitar invented?

This is not a question with a simple answer! From the early 20th century, four-stringed fretted bass instruments were being made, primarily in the USA, as a result of the craze for string bands, mandolin and banjo orchestras and of course the fledgeling recording industry. It is known that Gibson produced a very small number of guitar-shaped electric upright fretted basses in the 1930s, and one Paul Tutmarc marketed a short-scale (30" scale length) electric bass guitar in the early 1940s, probably the first designed to be played horizontally, but with no commercial success. A decade later, Leo Fender arrived at a similar idea, but this time with a 34" scale length, exactly between those of a guitar and a double-bass. The Fender Precision Bass was born fully-formed in 1951 and was an instant success.

What gauge and type of strings should be used for a child on an electric guitar?

I would suggest Ernie Ball: Hybrid Slinkies. They are an extra light gauge so the child's fingers can easily push them down against the neck. They also have less tendency to buzz on the frets if not held down entirely. Also, if you are teaching a child how to play Electric Guitar, you may want to try a guitar that is a 1/4 scale with a thin neck. Ibanez has a GRGM21 Mikro that is great for kids.


Is a guitar 18 inches in length with a 25.5' scale standard sized or should you typically go for something larger to avoid looking like a noob?

Sounds similar to the size of my Les Paul except it has a 24.75' scale. By 18 inches I'm going to assume you mean the length of the neck. What you listed is a fairly standard scale. I don't see what would be wrong with having a guitar with those specifications or how it would make you look like a noob having a certain type of guitar. What matters is your ears. Does the guitar sound good? Is the sound coming out the speakers of your amp a great tone. Do you have the talent? The scale of your guitar should only matter if you have a personal preference on scale or neck profile. It has nothing to do with what you can or cannot do with your guitar.
