Which sentence uses a comma correctly?

Choice C correctly uses a comma before “or” to separate two independent clauses: “Modern guitars can be acoustic” and “they can be electric.” In A, the comma wrongly separates a compound predicate with the same subject. B joins two independent clauses with only a comma, creating a comma splice. D has an unnecessary comma separating “wood” from the rest of the sentence.
