Guitar+(Electric)

=My Device= Guitar (electric) (pickups)

Purpose
//The purpose of this device is to translate the vibrations of the strings of a guitar to transfer them to be electric signals. this sends the electric signal to an amplifier, this can make the sound of the guitar louder, and if there are effects built in the amp or if pedals or switches are used between the connection from the guitar to the amp, different effects can be used.//

Energy
//The type of energy that is transformed is kinetic to electrical. The strings, after being strummed make a very small signal that is transfered from kinetic to electrical energy by the pickups, then the electrical signal is transfered to the amp and the amp makes the signal louder.//

Controls
//There us usually switches or knobs to control the volume, tone, if there is more than one then there is a switch to choose which one to use.//
