Yeah pretty much. you can get 7 string ones too though.

for example a normal 6 stings standard tuning is E A D G B E

while a 7 string standard tuning is B E A D G B E

Answer #2

A guitar is a six stringed instrument. A citar, for example, has five strings. The modern guitar originated in Spain, from what I read here in another question or answer.
