There are several kinds of guitars. The two main common ones are acoustic and electric. Within these two types of guitars lies different kinds of variations.

The most common guitar that many people have in their house is the acoustic guitar. It is the one that is made out of wood and varies in size. Parents usually buy their smaller kids small guitars so that they can actually play it. The size of a guitar for a kids is about 30 centimeters long and have very thin strings. Adults usually use the average size one which is about a meter long.

Twelve strings acoustic guitar:

The twelve string guitar is an acoustic guitar with twelve strings, which produces a richer and more ringing tone than a standard six string guitar. It's a type of guitar with a natural chorus effect due to the subtle differences in string timbre.
