My First Real Six String



A khaki colored head is the base of the instrument.  The outline of head makes a peanut shape with a hole in the middle of object.  The opening leads to the inside of the hollow peanut. This area is where all of the beautiful sounds of the guitar occur.  The sounds resonates inside the object and creates a low, humming noise that when combined with different notes, creates chords in which a voice can be put to.  Extending off the head is a long piece of wood that holds the six strings in which the guitarist strums.  The six strings are made of soft metal that bends with the hand that strums them.  The long neck has little bars the stretch across it vertically.  These frets connect with the strings and adjusts the tone of the chord. An amazing instrument can only be used by a skilled musician.  The instrument is only as good as the artist using it.  When you find a combination of a beautiful guitar and musician, the music created could melt your heart.
