ANATOMY OF THE GUITAR
Headstock - The top part of the guitar which typically houses the tuning pegs and other important components.
Tuning pegs - These can be found on the top of the headstock, they are used to hold the strings in place and maintain tuning.
Truss rod - The truss rod is located above the nut on the headstock, typically covered over. It is used to adjust the tension of the guitar neck, a process which is used in the set-up process.
The nut - This is the part the strings lean on before reaching the headstock and tuning pegs.
Fretboard - This is sometimes referred to as “the neck” or “fingerboard”. It is used by holding down the strings against each fret and then either picking or strumming some - or all - of the strings to resonate different tones.
Toggle switch - A lever on the front of the guitar switch switches between pickups.
Bridge - This is a critical piece of the guitar. It holds the strings at the body of the guitar giving the strings tension which allows them to resonate notes all the way up to the nut.
Strap locks - You might also hear these being referred to as strap pins or strap buttons. These are the small pegs that hold the strap in place.
