acoustic-electric
Amplifiable yet unplugged
An acoustic-electric instrument, typically a guitar, produces sound acoustically but includes built-in electronics for amplification.
The instrument can be played unplugged like a traditional acoustic or connected to an amplifier or PA system for larger venues: She switched to her acoustic-electric for the coffeehouse gig.
