I am loathe to post a noob topic in this forum but i have no choice, i need the knowledge :).

I was wondering if any one could explain A/E guitar electronics as there are just a few things i dont understand. I thought that an a/e was just like an electric (minus the wood and all). On an electric doesnt the power come from a plugged-in amp? But on the a/e theres a battery compartment. So does this mean that even when plugged into an amp, i'll still need to have a battery for it to work? Thanks!!
