Guitar- Machined

My sweet Genevieve is machined and hand-crafted. It is made from a Spruce top and Rosewood back/sides/neck. The headstock (not visible) has metal pegs on it that were lathed into the desirable shape. It was used by machines to cut, shape, and soften just about every part of this baby. I love her, and so should you.

Guitar Strings

You play the strings of a guitar by plucking them; in effect, you stretch them and create elastic potential energy, and then release them, which converts the potential energy into kinetic energy which we perceive as sound.

Guitar- strings store elastic potential energy

This here is my guitar, and basically the way it works is that the strings store elastic potential energy whenever it is pulled back by the finger, and when they are released the potential energy turns into kinetic energy by vibrating.
Location: The guitar is just in my room in my house! South Austin (I don't really want to put my address)
