Question: Can regular acoustics have on-board tuners!?
I found a guitar I like, but it has an on-board tuner!. Does this mean it's an acoustic-electric guitar!. Or could it just be a regular acoustic with an on-board tuner included!?

Thanks!.!.!. sorry if this is a silly question!. I'm still new to guitar!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

If the tuner is battery powered it could be a regular acoustic!. Best bet is to take the model number and google it!. Good Luck!.

Chances are it is an acoustic/electric!. The acoustics I've seen that have on-board tuners(for example: http://www!.guitarcenter!.com/Ibanez-AEL20!.!.!. or http://www!.guitarsandmore!.com/!?sec=produ!.!.!. were acoustic/electrics!. I doubt it is a regular acoustic with just a tuner!.

An "acoustic-electric" guitar is merely an acoustic guitar (sometimes with a slimmer body) that has a pick-up and a jack that can be used to plug the guitar into an external source (such as an amplifier or PA)!.
