Other Less Common Guitar Types

Guitars also vary based on how many strings they have. Six string guitars are by far the most familiar, however, there are also seven string guitars and twelve string guitars.

The 7 string guitar usually features two G strings, one of which is tuned an octave higher than the other. This additional G string provides the guitar an actual ring to its sound.
