Electric
The Pickups: The pickups are the microphones of the guitar, picking up the vibrations of the strings and moving them to your amplifier. There are two basic varieties of pickups: humbuckers and single-coils.

Humbucker Pickups: Humbuckers got their name because they get rid of the hum that usually comes with single-coil pickups. They are generally wider than single-coil pickups.

Single-Coil Pickups: Single-coil pickups are typically a bit brighter, but have the hum that humbuckers can usually get rid of.

Neither humbuckers nor single-coils are better or worse, so it comes down to personal preference and the kind of sound you want for your guitar.

Volume & Tone Knobs: Next, let’s talk about the controls on the body of the guitar, which are volume knobs and tone knobs. Yours may have one, two, three, or four depending on the type of guitar you have. The Volume knobs control how much volume or output is coming from your pickups. The Tone knobs controls the tone for the pickups, meaning you can control how much treble there is.

Pickup Selector: The second type of control on electric guitar is the pickup selector switch. Most guitars have a three-way style toggle switch, and it controls which pickup is active. If you toggle the switch down, the bridge pickup is active, which is naturally has more treble because it is closer to the end of the strings. If the toggle switch is in the middle, both pickups are active which gives a medium tone.

If the toggle is up, then the neck pickup is active, which is generally a more mellow tone. There are a couple of different types of pickup selector switch types, including the toggle switch, or if you have a Stratocaster guitar, you may have a 3 or 5-way blade switch.
