A semi-acoustic guitar or '''hollow-body electric''' is a type of Electric Guitar with both a Sound Box and one or more electric Pickups . Other semi-acoustic or ''acoustic electric'' instruments include Basses and Mandolins . These are similarly constructed to semi-acoustic guitars, and are used in the same ways and with the same limitations. Semi-acoustic instruments divide into two types:
Some instruments are borderline between these two types. For example, some electric Arch Top Guitar s are physically and acoustically identical to models from the same company without pickups, but the electric versions are almost never seen in performance without an amplifier. So, although the instrument is demonstrably ''capable'' of use as an acoustic instrument, in practice this does not occur. Other instruments are borderline between semi-acoustic and Solid Body . For example, some Telecaster guitars have chambers built in to an otherwise solid body to enrich the sound. Exactly where the line is to be drawn between a constructed sound box and a solid wooden body, whose construction also affects the sound according to many players, is not generally agreed. Some models have a fully hollow body, others may have a solid centre block running the length and depth of the body (for instance the , Gretsch and Gibson . A variety of manufacturers now produce semi-acoustic model guitars. |
