- Acoustic Guitar:- these guitars are hollow and made out of very thin wood. They don't need to be amplified to play and produce quite a bit of volume. Acoustic guitars are used in all types of music, although they make their voices known best in folk, country and so-called "acoustic" rock.
- Bass Guitar:- a bass guitar has a longer scale-length and thicker strings than a standard six-string guitar. These factors create a range of notes that are pitched an octave lower than the guitar. Often the bass is considered part of the rhythm section but there are some players whose skills are comparable to any other soloist . Acoustic and electric bass guitars are available but the electric bass is more common. The standard bass is the four string bass though five and six string basses are also manufactured. The four strings of the bass correspond to the lowest four strings of the guitar.
- Electric Guitar: these types of guitars made out of a solid piece of wood and rely exclusively on their electronic pickup systems and amplifiers for their volume. Their unique sound lends itself best to rock and roll.
- Classical Guitar:- also called "nylon-string", classical guitars are used almost exclusively in the classical and folk idioms, but can also be found on more popular recordings. Slightly smaller than a traditional acoustic, they feature slightly wider necks and strings that are made of nylon rather than steel, to give them a very gentle, warm sound.
