How the Electric Guitar Changed Music
Music today is always changing. One very big change was when the electric guitar was born in 1930…creating jazz and blues.
The electric guitar was invented before rock; as a result, other music was being played. The genres of music have changed a lot because of the electric guitar. Another big change that the electric guitar made on peoples lives was that many more people would start listening to rock, blues, jazz, pop rock and metal. So without the electric guitar we would not have any of these genres of music.
A lot of bands became a big hit because everyone was into rock and blues. Everyone was dieing to see a rock concert! The electric guitar made people think of music in so many different ways. They could relate this new style of music to past experiences and the sound made people rebellious and over joyful, making rock what it is.
Another good result of the electric guitar was the hole new design of clothes that the music suggested and even the pure beauty of the electric guitar. It was so fashionable to have a glamy Les Paul and have a leather jacket or purple feathered coat with white boots. I mean no matter what, you had to come on stage with a power slide then light your guitar on fire like Jimi Hendrix. Its just another thing that the electric guitar did to music even right now when my dad is showing me all these classic rock songs that he used to listed to back in the 70s.
I think the electric guitar was probably one of the best things that ever happened to music. So it goes to show, good things come with strings and picks.
New Question- Why do you think there is such thing as a guitar solo. Why not a bass solo? Would you prefeer a guitar or bass solo?

To be honest Idk what you mean by that question Sean. Probably coz they like rock music.
ya like julio said they go to concerts cuz they like the music and feeling of the band they go to c
I think they invented the guitar solo because of all the cool sounds you can make from it. I think there is not a bass solo because it has a lower sound,and it can't play too many different tones, unlike the guitar where you can play high pitched and low pitched sounds, so i would much rather hear a guitar solo than a bass solo.
