Musical instruments; the sound of which is produced or must be amplified, electrically (e.g. organs, guitars, accordions)

In plain English

This category includes musical instruments that generate sound through electrical means or require electrical amplification to be heard. The classification separates these items based on their design, specifically distinguishing between those with keyboards and those without. Instruments featuring a keyboard are grouped separately from other electrically amplified types, such as guitars and accordions, which do not have keys.
