    why are there many types of string thickness ?? difference between spanish and acoustic guitar ?
    The principal node frequency of a standing wave is proportional to sqrt mass. so thicker string will mean lesser frequency.

    Second answer don't know: koi batao bhai.
    https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-Spanish-guitar-and-acoustic-guitar

    A Spanish guitar has nylon strings as opposed to steel strings in an acoustic guitar.

    Another important point to note:
    Differences in String Material: Steel or other metals for acoustic, nylon for Spanish. One cannot simply put steel strings on a classical or nylon strings on an acoustic (see why in String Tension below the page of quora article).

    So, now I’m sure I play acoustic guitar, and not Spanish. Same as most of us, I guess claiming to play Spanish guitar would be flawed in the light of this new knowledge.

    what do u have in view that music helps in building strong memory ?? do u listen to music while studying ?
    Yes i believe some styles of music, indirectly helps in building a strong memory. They can help calming down our emotions and help concentrate or do something totally opposite, induce a feeling of immense excitement which will help being more alert and hence help aid awareness and consequently memory. The effects heavily vary due to the individual differences and are extremely difficult to generalize in a proper manner.

    I listen to music when is study. My choice varies depending on my mindset, sometimes i play upbeat electronic music tracks to keep a happy energetic mood or play some soothing music which is mostly choice of instrumental or classical songs for light ambience.

  • which principle of physics is used in guitar?? which part of the guitar produces sound ?
    Acoustic: Resonance.
    Electric: output waveform.
    Sound box.
    its actually the fret board that produces sound. http://www.ck12.org/user:sgoldburg/book/NA-Phys-2015-2016/section/10.3/ its harmonics in physics we learned. when we put out finger on fret it decreases or increases the length of the column .......... vibration on fret are carried over the sound hole which cause resonance and more sound is heard. in electric guitar also its fret board only but here the vibration of sound is not catch by sound board but pickups.............. (do study how pickup works)

    finally seniors u are giving too hi fi terms .......... play simple it should not look theory learned concepts but practically out of interest knowledge ............. like capo ............ its simple .......... to help play bar chords without having bar the fret with fingers ................. scale notes ............. scale is made up notes .......... a note is single beat allowed on any instrument .......... same is half beat quarter beat ............ 7 notes are there which we call saa re gaa maa paa dha nee saa ............. these make up different scales . scale make up all sort of music jam blues etc ............... chords are made up of scales ......... ( i knw very less on this ) a keynote is a note which is repeated in a song .......... only instrument player with experience catch that note ........ some songs cannot be played without capo. ex game of thrones
