The most common type of acoustic guitar is the classical guitar, which has nylon strings. Other types include steel-string acoustic guitars, which have steel strings; archtop guitars, which have a flat top; and flat-top acoustics, which also have a flat top but with frets. Classical guitars usually produce bright, clear notes while steel string acoustic guitars produce darker, richer tones. Archtops offer a fuller sound than flat-tops, and flat-tops provide more access to higher notes.
