What are the main features in the electric guitar?

Answer 1

Well for one it's louder. Body-wise it's about preference, if you're more comfortable with a guitar that takes up less space but heavier electrics are great. The control that you have over your pick ups on an Electric Guitar is very useful if you want a particular sound. Of course let's not forget about the fun you can have with effects and amps for electric Guitars. Those are the advantages I can think of right now but of course acoustics have their own advantages too.
