[QUOTE=science_man_88;235184]electric guitar ? (some may be battery powered I think and some you must plug in to get the electrical signal.)[/QUOTE]Well both elctrical and acoustic guitars are covered by this thing (whatever it is).[QUOTE=Mini-Geek;235112]Some do, some don't.

I'm not sure whether B.B. King ever played an electric guitar as well as an acoustic? If he did then it could be [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucille_%28guitar%29]lucille[/url] (which was many different guitars).

well a google search turned up this:

Epiphone B.B. King Lucille [B]Semi-Acoustic Electric[/B] Guitar, Ebony ... so technically it can be the same guitar and hence one object.

now it's down to proving if semi acoustic guitar's use something like clay that may be considered soil lmao.

Since there's a lot of discussion right now, I'll post a recap for you, excluding ones that couldn't possibly help since we know it's a guitar. :smile:
1) Is it part-animal? No, as far as I know.
4) does it have soil involved ? Sort of. One major part usually requires soil. Another does not directly involve soil.
10) Does it, or any part of it, take an electric current when it is being used? Some do, some don't. (there is more than one type of this thing, some types do, some don't)
15) Is it a guitar? Yes. (but that's not the full answer...)
16) Is the brand of guitar important? No.
17) Is the # of strings important? No. Types of this thing can have a varying number of strings, though one particular number of strings is the most common.

does it involve something like this:


1958 Carvin Guitars At the upper left is the Model 140 Spanish electric. ... there were more steel guitars offered in 1958 that standard soil-body electric guitars. ... The 6-string #6DHG-5B sold for $49.90, and could be ordered with a ...

No, that seems extremely specific. Also, lest you think some guitars are made out of soil and get a wrong impression on the soil question, I'm 99% sure they meant "solid-body" (i.e. the bulk of the guitar's body is solid wood, as opposed to a hollow body like most acoustics and some electrics, or other guitar designs). And something that specific would probably go against this rule, in that it's an obscure specific item, unlike one the majority are aware of, like the Apollo module:
[QUOTE=Uncwilly;234451][point of clarification issues: ... And if it is a specific item, it shan't be something on the order of, my fingernail clippings from my left ring finger from 2 weeks ago; rather Lord Nelson's lost arm would be ok. ][/QUOTE]
Also, see this reasoning:
[QUOTE=retina;235128]It can't be a particular guitar since a single guitar can't be of different types.[/QUOTE]

One reason that there is now more discussion than concrete questioning is, of course, that various people are stuck in their 24 hour "punishment period" after receiving a negative answer.:smile:

My current thinking, in case it helps those who are able to continue the questioning, is on the lines of range (of pitch).

I thought it was just discussion because it wasn't phrased like a usual question and wasn't numbered. Plus it still is technically in his 'blackout' period. Since there are so few questions left, I won't leave this to chance, but ask him:
science_man_88, did you mean that to be question 18 or was it just discussion?

probably part of both lol

Um..well, if you or anyone else are ready to continue with the numbered questions, post a numbered question.
