Guitar Word Search

Our guitar word search starts at the headstock and works down the instrument: the tuners, the fretboard, the strings and the soundhole, then the capo, the plectrum and the whammy bar, and the two famous electrics, the Les Paul and the Stratocaster.

A guitar's six strings are tuned E, A, D, G, B and E, from the lowest to the highest. Press a string at the twelfth fret and the note comes out an octave higher, because the string is cut exactly in half. All six strings together pull hard on the neck, so a steel truss rod runs inside it to keep it straight, and a capo clamped across the frets raises every string at once. Acoustic guitars are often built with a spruce top, a mahogany neck and a rosewood fretboard.

Gibson brought out the Les Paul in 1952, named for the guitarist who helped invent the solid body electric guitar and who recorded his own music in layers, one track on top of another. Fender's Stratocaster followed in 1954, with three pickups and a whammy bar. Jimi Hendrix was left-handed and played a right-handed Strat turned upside down. On the classical side, Andres Segovia took the nylon string guitar into concert halls at a time when many people thought it too quiet for one.
