Professional flute player with 9 years of learning experience.

It depends on the type of guitar we are talking about. The first modern guitar was invented by Antonio Torres Jurado while the first 6 stringed guitar was made by Gaetano Vinaccia. Some people also consider Christian Frederick Martin as the inventor of the first acoustic guitars.
