History
George Beauchamp invented the electric guitar or some may call the lap steel guitar. Initially, electric guitars consisted primarily of hollow archtop acoustic guitar bodies to which electromagnetic transducers had been attached.
Early years

Electric guitars were originally designed by an assortment of luthiers, electronics enthusiasts, and instrument manufacturers, in varying combinations. Some of the earliest electric guitars, then essentially adapted hollow bodied acoustic instruments, used tungsten pickups and were manufactured in the 1930s by Rickenbacker. In 1935, a Soviet scientist working separately from his western colleagues was known to have produced an electric Russian guitar called the “Kuznetsov electromagnetic guitar”. It was exhibited at a technology expo in Moscow, but its development was halted since the Stalin regime was hostile to guitar music[citation needed].
At least one company, Audiovox, built and may have offered an electric solid-body as early as the mid-1930s. Rickenbacher, later spelled Rickenbacker offered a cast aluminum electric guitar, nicknamed The Frying Pan or The Pancake Guitar, beginning in 1933.
Another early solid body electric guitar was designed and built by musician and inventor Les Paul in the early 1940s, working after hours in the Epiphone Guitar factory. His log guitar (so called because it consisted of a simple 4×4 wood post with a neck attached to it and homemade pickups and hardware, with two detachable Swedish hollow body halves attached to the sides for appearance only) was patented 1991 Fender Stratocaster USA and is often considered to be the first of its kind, although it shares nothing in design or hardware with the solid body “Les Paul” model sold by Gibson.

In 1950 and 1951, electronics and instrument amplifier maker Leo Fender through his company, designed the first commercially successful solid-body electric guitar with a single magnetic pickup, which was initially named the “Esquire”. The two-pickup version of the Esquire was called the “Broadcaster”. The bolt-on neck was consistent with Leo Fender’s belief that the instrument design should be modular to allow cost-effective and consistent manufacture and assembly, as well as simple repair or replacement.
In 1954, Fender introduced the Fender Stratocaster, or “Strat”. It was positioned as a deluxe model and offered various product improvements and innovations over the Telecaster. These innovations included an ash or alder double-cutaway body design for badge assembly with an integrated vibrato mechanism (called a synchronized tremolo by Fender, thus beginning a confusion of the terms that still continues), three single-coil pickups, and body comfort contours. Leo Fender is also credited with developing the first commercially-successful electric bass called the Fender Precision Bass, introduced in 1951.
Gibson
Main article: Gibson Guitar Corporation
Gibson, like many guitar manufacturers, had long offered semi-acoustic guitars with pickups, and previously rejected Les Paul and his “log” electric in the 1940s. In apparent response to the Telecaster, Gibson introduced the first Gibson Les Paul solid body guitar in 1952 (although Les Paul was actually brought in only towards the end of the design process for expert fine tuning of the nearly complete design and for marketing endorsement ). Features of the Les Paul include a solid mahogany body with a carved maple top (much like a violin and earlier Gibson archtop hollow body electric guitars) and contrasting edge binding, two single-coil “soapbar” pickups, a 24″ scale mahogany neck with a more traditional glued-in “set” neck joint, binding on the edges of the fretboard, and a tilt-back headstock with three machine heads (tuners) to a side. The earliest models had a combination bridge and trapeze-tailpiece design that was in fact designed by Les Paul himself, but was largely disliked and discontinued after the first year. Gibson then developed the Tune-o-matic bridge and separate stop tailpiece, an adjustable non-vibrato design that has endured. By 1957, Gibson had made the final major change to the Les Paul as we know it today – the humbucking pickup, or humbucker. The humbucker, invented by Seth Lover, was a dual-coil pickup which featured two windings connected out of phase and reverse-wound, in order to cancel the 60-cycle hum associated with single-coil pickups; as a byproduct, however, it also produces a distinctive, more “mellow” tone which appeals to many guitarists. The more traditionally designed and styled Gibson solid-body instruments were a contrast to Leo Fender’s modular designs, with the most notable differentiator being the method of neck attachment and the scale of the neck (Gibson-24.75″, Fender-25.5″). Each design has its own

How hard is it to replace the nut of an 1991 American Standard Stratocaster?
Hey, I’ve been having some tuning issues with my strat. ive replaced the tuners with Locking ones from SChaller, and now im looking into replaing the string trees, and nut with Graph Tech ones. Will this one fit my strat? http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Graph-Tech-Slotted-TremNut-for-Stratocaster?sku=360450 1991 Fender Stratocaster USA or should i get an LSR roller nut? http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Fender-LSR-Roller-Nut?sku=361268 and if soo, does it take alot of skill to replace the stock one currently on my strat. i’ve heard that all u need to do is knock the old one out and glue the new one in. Can make the replacement, or should i bring it to an expreienced luthier? i also use .010 gauge strings.Nevermind about the LSR roller nut..i just found out that u need to cut/file some of the first fret to make room for it…so ya, the roller nut is out of the picture.
