response: Not exactly, but the modern guitar was preceded by the gittern, the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance and the five-course baroque guitar.
history: My friend plays the guitar, do you know much about guitars? Not much,  but I know a few things.  For example, I know the guitar is a type of chordophone, traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut, nylon or steel string. That's interesting, what exactly is a chordophone? A chordophone is a musical instrument that makes sound by way of a vibrating string stretched between two points. That makes sense, do you know when the guitar was invented?
knowledge: The modern guitar was preceded by the gittern, the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar, and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed to the development of the modern six-string instrument.
