Embodiment Construction

[0020] Below, refer to Figure 1~6 , an embodiment of the present invention will be described. In this embodiment, an electric guitar 1 is exemplified as a stringed instrument according to the present invention.

[0021] like figure 1 As shown, the electric guitar 1 according to this embodiment has a body 2 , a neck 3 and strings 4 .

[0022] The neck 3 is connected to the end of the body 2 and extends away from the body 2 . On the headstock 5 constituting the front end in the longitudinal direction of the neck 3 , a string twist 6 around which the ends of the strings 4 are wound is provided. The strings 4 are stretched along the length direction of the neck 3 (string stretching direction; X-axis direction).

[0023] The body 2 of the electric guitar 1 has a body body 11 and a rigidity adjustment part 12 .

[0024] The fuselage main body 11 is made of a solid fuselage with no hollow inside. That is, the body main body 11 is formed in a plate shape. The main body 11 of t...

Abstract

Even if a protrusion is formed in a body, the vibration characteristic of the body is improved, and the tone quality of a stringed instrument is improved. A body (2) for a stringed instrument (1) includes a body unit (11) having a protrusion (14), and a rigidity adjusting member (12) that extends from a central portion (21) of the body unit (11) to the protrusion (14) and that is affixed to the body unit (11).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a body of a stringed instrument and a stringed instrument with the body. Background technique [0002] In a stringed instrument such as an electric guitar that has a body, a neck, and a headstock, the vibration of the strings is also transmitted to the body and neck, and the body and neck also vibrate. Since the body and neck vibrate, the vibration energy of the string is consumed and the vibration of the string is attenuated. Therefore, the vibration characteristics of the body and the neck affect the vibration of the strings and the sound quality of the stringed instrument. [0003] Non-Patent Document 1 discloses an electric guitar including a body in which a part of the body is cut to facilitate playing the electric guitar. In the fuselage subjected to the cutting process, the portion remaining without being chipped off is formed as a convex portion. [0004] Non-Patent Document 1: "REVSTAR" [online], [retrieved ...
