The energy transformations in a guitar involve converting mechanical energy from strumming or plucking the strings into sound energy. The vibration of the strings creates sound waves, which travel through the air as sound energy. The sound waves can then be converted back into mechanical vibrations when they reach our ears.
An electric guitar converts mechanical energy (from plucking the strings) into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. This electrical energy is then amplified and converted back into sound energy through a speaker.
An electric guitar has potential energy stored in its strings in the form of elastic potential energy when they are stretched. When the strings are plucked, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the strings vibrate to produce sound.

A guitar produces sound energy when the strings are strummed, causing vibrations that create sound waves. Additionally, when an electric guitar is plugged into an amplifier, it converts the sound energy into electrical energy to produce a louder sound.

The energy transformation that occurs is electrical to mechanical

In an electric motor, electrical energy (because it uses electricity) is transformed into mechanical energy (because it performs action). An electric mixer is a good example of this.

electrical energy ------> light & heat energy.
The benefits of an electric guitar amplifier are the increased energy content to the signal the guitar produces and the available tone controls. The amplifier is a staple of guitarists for those reasons.

In most energy transformations, part of the energy is wasted. Much of the wasted energy is usually converted to heat.
The byproduct of energy transformations is heat, which is released into the environment. This is due to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that some energy will always be converted into an unusable form (in this case, heat) during energy transformations.
