Guitar construction

 Guitar is very popular instrument mostly thanks to how versatile it is. You can play almost every song on the guitar because of how it is built. Back and sides of the instrument are usually made with rose Wood. The top of the guitar is made out of spruce which some times is switched to cedar or redwood. Neck of the guitar (part between fourteenth and twelfth frets) is constructed from mahogany, and the fingerboard should be made out of ebony but rosewood is often used as a less expesive substitute. Strings are made from metal, which is usually steel.

You should always check what materials guitar which you want to buy is made from, because different woods may distort the sound.

The hardest instrument

You can measure how hard it is to play the instrument by looking at how hard it is to understand the basics or how hard it is to master the instrument. For example it is quite easy to learn how to play easy songs and chords on the guitar, but when you get to more complicated melodies it becomes very difficult. The hardest instrument to play is oboe. First of all this instrument requires a lot more of maintenance than most of other instruments. It is also very hard to tune this object, but without making it sound right, you can not learn even basics. After you finally tune you realise that it is very counterintuitive. For example in order to play higher notes you have to lower your hand. Oboe is considered the hardest instrument in the world. https://higherhz.com/hardest-instruments-to-learn-play-master/

Listening and making music can also keep our brain healthy as it ages. It works because listening to music is like an excersize to brain.
