Guitar As The Sound Of Music

By Brenda Hall


Watching a concert of your favourite artist or band is absolutely exhilarating. Fans would really go wild as they watch their idols performing on stage. Their music mostly makes a person alive. That is how songs and melody made some impact in a life of a human being. Have you ever wonder how the world will function if no sound is being heard of? That would be weird and dull. Musical instruments create sounds that can be pleasant to our ears even if using bass guitar synth controllerism.

People nowadays listen to different kind of categories in music. Many individuals are into Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and Selena Gomez who are famous and now the mainstream in pop genre. The RnB and Hip-hop has also risen up in this generation since lots of rappers are making new songs that the youth in Generation Z really enjoys. But what about Rock??

This genre actually comes from the term rock and roll during the early 1950s. It became an umbrella now consisting of various subgenres like alternative, post-punk, grunge, heavy metal and many more. It receives many stereotypes like how the message of some songs depicts only for emos and outcasts in a society. Moreover, fans still love to listen to the songs of this type as its content is more substantial compared to other songs.

Teens and adult men mostly love to listen in this category as it does not usually talk about love and some cheesy stuff that are worth cringe. If girls like Taylor Swift, boys like Simple Plan. If women worship Lady Gaga, men may also worship Marilyn Manson. Yes, people have different tastes but other than that, one will still remain and would always keep music alive. The instruments. And specifically, the guitar.

On the other hand, one instrument remains constant in making music. And that is guitar. This had been utilized in any area of musical field. It has flexible uses that as a result, most people made it as their favourite instrument. You can even learn it for the process is easy. However, if being an expert is what you desire, passion, motivation and efforts are the key ingredient to master it.

Though there are no sources on when this type of instrument was first used. But the important thing about this is how it became very vital to the performers or musicians. Many types are known in guitars but in a rock genre, electric guitar is usually the symbol.

When you love hardcore songs, you probably do banging your head in the air at sound of electric guitars. Imagine yourself at a concert with Pierce the Veil. Aside that you activate your fangirl or fanboy because Vic is singing, your feet would totally jump and mouth singing at the chorus.

People may argue about what is more preferred in choosing a type of guitars. Electric guitars maybe easy to handle since its strings are much softer compared to the acoustic counterpart. And for beginners, it will be a challenge to find the right tone in using this.

Whether the genre is rock or ballad, guitars are still used. If you want to be a rockstar, then go for it. Be motivated and start practicing on playing that instrument.
