Listen to the rest of the band
Create space for each instrument and work together
Electric guitar is generally looking to play higher up on the neck than you would
with an acoustic guitar
Compliment each other dont compete
Be engaged in the music
Prefer one another
Bring all you have to the part that you are playing, no matter how big or small

This is a very brief description of the most common guitars out there. There are of
course many other styles like Gretschs (one of my favorites that I own is a Gretsch
Tennessee Rose with Filtertoon pickups), PRS, Rickenbacker, and many others.
However, these 3 listed above are a good place to start. These are by far the 3 most
copied and emulated guitars by many different luthiers and manufacturers.
