Answer 1

i dont think its electric guitar, bc...well now idk. there was a solo with one playing. so hm...

all that i can see, are playing non-electric guitars, except for the cello. and the drums. so idk...going by inturments id say acoustic. but by going by the sound id say electric.

thats a tricky one!!! hope this helps!! good luck!

Answer 2

That guitar would be considered an acoustic because of its large body.  I think he might of bought the pickups separately and had them put on for better amplification or a different sound.

Answer 3

Most people would consider this an "acoustic-electric".

Kurt's guitar is a modified Martin D-18E with  DeArmond pickups (not sure if 1 or 2) in the stock model and an added Bartolini soundhole pickup.  Per rumor, the factory DeArmonds were dead and he added the Bartolini to get it working for this performance.

Answer 4

Electrical Acoustic  He is Left Handed but with a Right handed guitar so he inverted his strings

( i love Kurt cobain R.I.P)
