Starting with the headstock right at the top, the part of the electirc guitar that is attached to the slimmer neck of the instrument.
Then there are the tuners. Basically the tuners are used to tune the electric guitar, or to adjust the pitch of the strings.
Next part of the electric guitar will be the nut. This is between the headstock and the neck of the guitar.
This is sometimes made of bone or plastic and it have six small grooves to guide the strings up to the tuners. then focus will be placed on the next part, the neck of the guitar. This is where you place your fingers a lot and holding at different positions to create different tunes.
The frets are strips of metal running along the surface of the guitar’s neck. Guitarists also refer to the space between two strips of metal as a fret.
Further down you the neck we comes to the body of the guitar.
On the body of your electric guitar, you will find microphones like pickups. The pickups capture the sound of the electric guitar so they can be amplified.

Next we come to the bridge of your electric guitar. It is a piece of hardware attached to the body of the guitar. The strings run from the tuning pegs to the bridge.
The tremolo or Whammy Bar, is a bar connected to the bridge of the electric guitar. By moving the tremolo bar up or down, you can move the bridge, thus changing the pitch.
You will find volume and tone control knobs on the body, that is used to adjust electric guitar tone and volume.
