Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

HSH

HSH describes a pickup configuration with a humbucker in the bridge position, a single-coil in the middle, and a humbucker in the neck. This layout combines the power and thickness of humbuckers with the clarity and snap of a single-coil.

HSH setups offer a wide tonal range, making them highly versatile for players who move between clean, crunchy, and high-gain sounds. They are popular in rock, fusion, and progressive styles, where flexibility and access to both vintage and modern tones are important.
