An acousticguitar is a modern form of guitar descended from the Classical guitar, but generally strung with steel strings for a brighter, louder sound.
The acousticguitar is often played with one or more plectra, or guitar picks, small plates of hard plastic or other material used to strike and strum the strings.
One variation on the standard acousticguitar is the 12 string guitar, which sports an additional doubling string for each of the traditional six strings.
The strings of a six-string guitar are tuned to E, A, D, G, B, E, a fourth apart except for the major third interval between B and G. Frets are placed by the fret rule "one-eighteenth the remaining length of the string".
Frets on guitars are placed by the fret rule "one-eighteenth the remaining length of the string".
If the frets of the guitar are set for equal temperament), then the 5th fret is 5 semitones or an equal tempered musical fourth.
