The term 'Guitar Sound' can be broken down into three distinct parts: THRUM, CHORD, and Twang. THRUM is a low, continuous sound that is produced by strumming the strings of a guitar. A CHORD is a combination of notes played together to create a harmonic sound. Twang is a sharp, high-pitched sound that is created by plucking the strings of a guitar. All three of these sounds are essential components of the unique sound of a guitar.
