Guitar is a musical instrument that was first founded in Spain. It has six strings and a tube called “resonance tube”. As an instrument, guitar can produces many tones, so basically it is classified as a melodic instrument. When it was first founded, it was made from wood and had an ordinary shape. But nowadays, it has developed into many shapes and also can be connected to an electric speaker.
If we look back at the history of guitar, actually it was designed for solo playing such as piano. It could produce many beautiful tones only from six strings. Therefore, a very composer, Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827 A.D) called guitar as a “Mini Orchestra” that can be played anywhere, anytime. Unfortunately, this “mini orchestra” doesn’t show its ability as an orchestra. It is mostly played just for a single melody or a back-sound of a song. Indeed, this “mini orchestra” can produces bass, melody, chord, and even percussion at a moment.
