The guitar is a fretted string instrument that possesses a string number between four and eighteen, usually six. The first instruments that modern audiences would recognize as guitars were built in the fifteenth century. The main parts of a guitar are the body, the fretboard, the headstock, and the strings. While the body is made of wood, the strings are created out of steel or nylon.
