Electric Guitar Strat
Let us consider the electric guitar
Decades after they first came to prominence, electric guitars still epitomise the spirit of rock and pop music more than any other instrument, and remain the essential musical ingredient in most bands’ repertoires thanks to the great number of guitar effects and sounds that can be achieved.
Modern electric guitars are generally solid body instruments (in other words they do not have sound holes like those seen in acoustic guitars) and the music the guitarist makes can only be heard to any sensible standard via a ‘pick-up’ situated under the strings which then feeds through to an electric amplifier.
Some electric guitars have two pick-ups, each producing a distinct tone. The guitarist can easily switch between the two pick-ups in order to produce a more colourful and expressive performance with different guitar effects.
Most choices of electric guitars will be based on the type of music each guitar is considered better at reproducing. Thus a Gibson Les Paul and the direct and indirect copies it has inspired are famed for their weighty sound (and, incidentally, their comparatively weighty frame). This heavy sound is much sought after by rock bands. A Fender Stratocaster (or ‘Strat’) and its derivatives on the other hand might be purchased in order to generate a lighter, ‘pop’ feel.
This distinction between electric guitars should not be considered set in stone however. After all, Jimmy Hendrix produced what many consider to be the among the greatest rock guitar tracks using only a Strat and a few effects pedals – but then he is considered to be one of the greatest guitar players many have seen and many strive to play their guitar like Hendrix.

I'm buying a Squier Affinity Strat Special Electric Guitar!?
and need to know if it comes with a case and a whammy bar or do i need to go out and buy one? 10 points!!!!! please anwser right away!
It won't come with a case, it will however come with a whammy bar and tools needed to set it up. If you want to keep your guitar in good condition you will need a case or at least a good bag. These things can cost half as much as the guitar itself. I think a flight case costs more than the guitar! For most people I think a cheaper bag will suffice, it is a $150 Squier, not a $1000 American Strat. Beat up guitars look cool anyway.
