Classical guitar with a body as a resonator, an associated neck with a fingerboard, a head at the end of the neck and strings running over the fingerboard, characterized in that the fingerboard (3) has more than nineteen frets.

Description

The Invention relates to classical guitars with a body as a sound box, an associated neck with a fretboard, a head at the end of the neck and over the fingerboard running strings.

guitars are well known. These essentially consist of one Body, a neck with a fingerboard, a head and strings. To shorten a string, the fingerboard is provided with frets. Well-known classical guitars have twelve frets to the carcass approach. The playability of the classical guitar is restricted.

Through the publication DE 103 35 919 B4 is an acoustic guitar with a hollow body known at one end, head end a recess is formed with a recessed frame portion. The recess is designed asymmetrically with respect to a vertical central longitudinal axis of the body. Here, an unobstructed operation and thereby the best possible function should be ensured. The recess leads to an increased effort in the realization of this acoustic guitar.

Of the The protection claimed in claim 1 is based on the object easy to improve the playability of a classical guitar.

These Task is with the features listed in the protection claim 1 solved.

The classic guitars with a body as a resonator, an associated neck with a fingerboard, a head on End of the neck and strings running over the fingerboard are characterized in particular by an improved playability.

To The neck has more than nineteen frets.

Of the Body is known to consist of a wooden sound box, which has a bottom, sides and a ceiling. The shape of the resonator corresponds to the well-known classical guitars. The ceiling has a round sound hole. On the corpus is the bridge, on the strings are attached. With the sound box is the Neck connected. This has a fretboard over which the strings are running. The choice of woods for the Neck and fingerboard affect the sound and playability the guitar.

On There are frets on the fingerboard. This allows the string be shortened when gripping to a certain tone when Create beating. Each fret corresponds to a halftone step.

advantageously, owns the fretboard over known guitars more as nineteen frets. Conveniently located not the twelfth fret, but the thirteenth fret at the neck Body approach. In the former case the playability is limited, while the playability in the second case improves.

Want for example, you can grab a bargain on the ninth fret, that means the index finger of the left hand on the ninth Lay the waistband over the entire fretboard, that's the frame from the corpus disturbing the hand edge of the left Hand. In addition, many other handles are not playable.

advantageously, These problems occur in the realization of the thirteenth covenant at the neck not on.

in the End of the neck is the saddle, which is known made of plastic or bone.

At the At the end of the neck is the head, at the other end the strings are attached by means of vertebrae. The vortices serve the Adjusting the tension of the strings.

advantageous Embodiments of the invention are in the claims 2 to 5 indicated.

in the Fretboard are according to the embodiment of the protection claim 2 more as nineteen of a solid material existing frets admitted.

The Frets are made of a solid material and are immovable let into the fingerboard of the neck. Through suitable and well-known playing techniques are thus also intermediate tones generated.

in the Fretboard are according to the embodiment of the protection claim 3 advantageously twenty frets made of solid material. Thereby are even higher sounds playable.

Of the thirteenth covenant is after the development of the protection claim 4 the body approach.

Of the Federation exists after the development of the protection claim 5 favorably from a metal, in particular silver or nickel silver.

One Embodiment of the invention is in the drawings each shown in principle and will be closer in the following described.

It demonstrate:

1 a well-known classical guitar with twelve frets up to the corpus neck and

2 a classic guitar with thirteen frets to the neck.

A classical guitar essentially consists of a body 1 as a resonator, a connected neck 2 with a fingerboard 3 , a head 4 at the end of the neck 2 and over the fingerboard 3 running strings. The body 1 is known to consist of a wooden sound box, which has a bottom, sides and a ceiling. The shape of the resonator corresponds to the well-known classical guitar. The ceiling has a round sound hole 5 , On the body 1 is the footbridge 6 to which the strings are attached. The strings are simply not shown in the figures.

On the fingerboard 3 frets are arranged, which serve to shorten a string when gripping to produce a certain sound when striking. Each fret corresponds to a halftone step.

Known Classic guitars have twelve frets up to the Body approach.

The 1 shows a well-known classical guitar with twelve frets to the body approach in a schematic representation.

In the 1 the frets are shown, with the 5th fret ( 5.B ), the 7th Bund ( 7.B ), the 9th Bund ( 9.B ), the 12th fret ( 12.B ) and the 19th Bund ( 19.B ) Marked are.

The classical guitar possesses opposite known guitars with twelve frets thirteen frets to the Neck.

The 2 shows a classical guitar with thirteen frets to the body approach in a schematic representation.

Of the The thirteenth fret is at the same time the body approach.

In the 2 the frets are shown, with the 5th fret ( 5.B ), the 7th Bund ( 7.B ), the 9th Bund ( 9.B ), the 12th fret ( 12.B ), the 13th fraternity ( 13.b ) and the 20th Bund ( 20.B ) Marked are.

In order to the playability of the classical guitar improves significantly.
