String instrument in violin family, capable of versatile use as acoustic or electric instrument

Abstract

The present invention relates to a string instrument in the violin family, capable of versatile use as an acoustic or electric instrument, wherein the string instrument in the violin family comprises: a soundboard comprising an upper plate and a lower plate placed with maintaining an interval, and side plates encompassing the edges of the upper plate and the lower plate; a neck portion extended from the soundboard to one side, of which the end comprises a head; one or more strings fixed between the soundboard and the head; and a piezo pickup which can convert the vibration of the strings into electricity, thereby amplifying sound. The piezo pickup is buried in the place where the lower plate of the soundboard comes in contact with the lower end of a soundpost, so as to be fixed with a pressure plate, and then the soundpost is stood on the pressure plate. The pressure and vibration generated in the strings pass through the upper plate of the soundboard through a bridge and go down the soundpost to be transmitted to the pressure plate, thereby causing a piezoelectric effect of the piezo pickup buried in the lower plate of the soundboard along with generating the acoustic sound of the lower plate of the soundboard.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a violin-like stringed musical instrument, in particular to an acoustical and electronic violin-like stringed musical instrument capable of realizing both acoustic and electronic sound in one musical instrument. Background technique [0002] Generally, a violin-like stringed instrument is a musical instrument that produces sound through strings. The sound is produced by rubbing the strings with a bow or by playing with fingers. A stringed instrument that produces sound by rubbing the strings with a bow, usually such as figure 1 As shown, it includes: a soundboard 2 formed by a resonator; a neck 4 formed by extending from the soundboard 2; The state is fixed between the soundboard 2 and the headstock 12 . [0003] The sound board 2 includes: an upper board 2a, a lower board 2b, and a side board 2c surrounding the periphery of the upper board and the lower board, and a resonance hole 8 is formed on the upper board 2a. ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, because the existing electronic violin does not have a soundboard, it cannot produce the original sound without electric amplification, and can only produce a very subtle sound.
