ACOUSTIC
GUITARS
The first acoustic
guitar can find its origins back in the
Middle Ages.
Two types of guitars had been popularized and they were called Guitarra
Latina and Guitarra Morisca. Today, the acoustic guitar comes in many
shapes
and sizes, and the mass production of the instrument has allowed it to
be purchased by anyone who wishes to buy one, contributing to its ever
growing popularity.
