Too often in music, certain instruments are muddled in with one another. For example, the acoustic guitar and electric guitar are both often placed in the same category and considered to be the same instrument. However, the electric guitar is actually an electric side drum and can be used in a number of ways not possible with the acoustic guitar.

For example, the electric side drum can be used to create a beat for a song or to add texture to a composition. Additionally, the electric side drum can be used to create a funky rhythm section sound.
