Definitions
- the invention relates to a rider for adjustable guidance of the strings of a guitar, in particular electric guitar, or of an electric bass for attachment to a arranged on the body of one of said instruments base plate, which consists at least predominantly of a conductive material, in particular a metal.
- Guitars especially electric guitars, and electric basses have on their body usually a base plate, in which the strings of the instrument are fixed with a first end.
- this base plate is often formed in the form of a so-called Tremolo system block.
- the strings are typically defined with thickenings, so-called Ball-Ends, in guided through the base plate substantially perpendicular to the main surface of the instrument bores and are deflected at the top outlet from the holes by substantially 90 °.
- the strings run through one on the Fixed base plate, so-called rider or Reiterholzsatz are deflected on this and guided on the surface.
- Conventional base plate in particular Tremolo system blocks, are made of metal and equipped with also metal riders.
- the riders are one-piece, consisting of a solid piece of metal elements.
- the core idea of the invention is to keep the tab with insulating properties, as it is required for an electrical isolation of the strings against each other, with a conventional tab largely identical.
- the insulating rider should consist essentially of the same material as a conventional rider and also differ in form from a conventional rider only as far as necessary. This occurs against the background that a change in the rider, especially in the material, would cause a change in the sound characteristics of the instrument equipped with this rider, which change is undesirable.
- this object is achieved in that a rider constructed in two parts is used with a base body and a rider insert, wherein the base body and the rider insert consist of an electrically conductive, in particular metallic material.
- both base body and rider insert of such a material as it is used for conventional riders. Only between the body and riding insert or between the contact surfaces of these two elements insulation is provided.
- This is preferably formed as a thin layer as possible to make the smallest possible proportion of the total volume of the rider, so that the rider according to the invention in its properties substantially similar to those of a conventional rider.
- the invention provides a solution which provides a rider which is substantially equal to a conventional rider. This would be for example at a Use of a fully insulating riding insert, such as plastic or ceramic, not given.
- the insulation between the base body and the rider insert is formed by an electrically insulating adhesive which at the same time firmly connects the base body and the rider insert to one another.
- the adhesive also fulfills two tasks: first, it forms the firm connection between the main body and the rider insert, at the same time he also creates the electrical insulation.
- the use of the adhesive eliminates the need for a different type of connection, for example by screwing or the like.
- a specified as in claim 3 training the rider insert allows an additional fixed by a certain positive fit connection between the body and the rider insert.
- 1 is a schematic three-dimensional top view of an electric guitar
- FIG. 3 in four different representations (a) to (d) a rider according to the invention for a tremolo block of the electric guitar.
- an electric guitar 1 is shown in a three-dimensional plan view schematically.
- the electric guitar 1 has as main components a body 2, a bridge 3 and the head 4.
- On the body 2 of the so-called Tremolo system block 5 is arranged, on which the guitar strings 6a-6f are fixed, each with a first end.
- the exact Type of determination will be described later with reference to FIG. 3.
- the strings 6a-6f extend over the bridge 3 of the guitar 1 and run on the head 4 on vertebrae 7. These vortices 7 are rotatable about their longitudinal axis by means of a vane 8 associated with the vane 7, so that the strings 6a-6f can be turned on or unwound from the respective vortices 7. This is for tuning the strings 6a-6f.
- Pick Guard 9 On the body below the strings 6a-6f is finally still the so-called Pick Guard 9 can be seen.
- tab 15 On the tremolo system block 5 of the electric guitar 1 tab 15 are mounted in a substantially conventional manner, these tabs 15 are formed according to the invention as shown in Fig. 2. In this case, for each guitar string ⁇ a- ⁇ f a respective rider 15 is arranged on the tremolo system block 5, so that a total of six riders 15 are present in an electric guitar 1.
- the rider 15 according to the invention consists of a base body 16 and a rider insert l ⁇ a.
- the rider insert 16a is formed substantially L-shaped.
- This string is guided over the surface 22 of the rider insert l ⁇ a so that it rests on this surface 22. Due to the electrical insulation of the rider insert l ⁇ a of the base body 16, the guitar string 6a- ⁇ f is insulated from the base body 16 and thus also with respect to the tremolo system block, in which the rider is screwed.
- the inventively constructed tab 15 provides an electrical insulation of the strings ⁇ a- ⁇ f against each other, without deviating significantly in its properties both sonic nature and optical nature compared to a conventional rider of a conventional electric guitar.
