Acoustic Guitar
Most of the terms on this page apply to both electric and acoustic guitars. Here are a few which are specific to acoustics:
Sound Hole
This is where the sound of the guitar will come out after it has bounced around inside! When you strum you don’t want to cover this too much if you can help it.!

String Peg
A string peg is a plastic (or sometimes metal) pin that holds the string in the bridge. Make sure these are pressed in firmly because there is a lot of pressure on them and they can be dangerous if they spring out. Read the lesson on Changing Acoustic Strings (lesson BC-202) carefully before playing with these!
