A guitar is a popular musical instrument which produces sound by vibration of its strings. All guitars fall into one of the two broad categories: acoustic and electric. In an acoustic guitar sound produced by the string is modulated by its hollow body, it does not require any external device for it to be heard; an electric guitar requires amplifiers to electronically manipulate its tone.

The soundboard together with the sound box (a resonant cavity) of the acoustic guitar amplifies sound produced by the strings. The vibrations of the strings pass on to the soundboard through the bridge mounted on it; the large area of the soundboard displaces a large volume of air producing a louder sound.
