  • JP S57 200096 A defined a guitar pick-up plate, rotatably fixed perpendicular to the main body and which carries several pick-up devices (pick-up's) of different characteristics. Manual means for maneuvering the barrel in rotation make it possible to easily and quickly change the current sound pickup used.
  • a document US 2015/0294659 presents a device for interchanging electric systems for capturing the vibrations of the strings, also called microphones, of an electric guitar.
  • This device comprises a tray integrated into the front face of the guitar, on which are arranged four sets of microphones. This plate is rotatable around an axis perpendicular to the front face of the guitar.
  • the sets of microphones are placed on the platter so that where one set of microphones is located at the bridge of the guitar, a second set of microphones is located at the neck of the guitar.
  • a set of microphones has a sense of use relative to the gauge of each of the strings.
  • the orientation of the axis of rotation of the barrel parallel to the plane of the front face makes it possible to limit the imprint of the device according to the invention on the front face so that it affects the behavior of the latter less and that it is more discreet than the device according to the prior art.
  • the implementation of a barrel comprising electrical or electronic systems for capturing vibrations allows the use of a greater number of assemblies, while having a minimum bulk.
  • the device according to the invention and, in particular its cradle, can be integrated into the musical instrument during its manufacture.
  • the invention also relates to a musical instrument integrating at least one device for interchanging the pick-up systems in accordance with the invention.
  • the use of at least two barrels allows the capture of vibrations at at least two different predetermined locations and can be done with different and independent systems. The result is a wide choice of vibration capture systems and a large number of possible combinations. Indeed, the two barrels are not linked to each other so that they can be operated independently of each other.
  • each barrel is removably fitted to the cradle.
  • the removable nature facilitates the change of capture systems by changing the barrel.
  • the change of system is done very simply, without soldering, without removing the strings, nor disturbing the instrument.
  • each barrel comprises at least one housing intended to receive a removable drawer carrying a capture system.
  • a removable drawer carrying a capture system is possible to easily change the pickup systems of a barrel, which allows the musician to easily choose the pickup systems available on the same barrel.

  • each capture system is carried by a removable drawer and each barrel comprises as many housings as capture systems.
  • This embodiment variant makes it possible to easily change all the capture systems of the same barrel and each of them independently of the others.
  • each pickup system comprises a row of transducers aligned along a direction D1 substantially parallel to the axis of rotation A1 of the barrel.
  • each transducer of this system is located opposite a string in order to pick up its vibration.
  • the capture systems can be commercial capture systems and/or come from different manufacturers so that it is thus possible to have capture systems with specific characteristics and offering different sounds.
  • the device comprises means for indexing and immobilizing in rotation each barrel in each of the positions placing a capture system in the working position. These means make it possible to stop the rotation of the barrel and to secure it according to a position wanted.
  • the device comprises connection means adapted so that only the pickup system in the working position is electrically connected to the connection means.
  • connection means On a barrel, only one capture system is then active while the others are grounded, i.e. all of their connections are electrically connected to the same polarity of the amplification circuit or connected grounded by a low resistance conductor.
  • the signals from the capture system in the working position, recovered by the amplification system, are not noisy.
  • the active vibration capture system, in the working position is then not affected by the other capture systems present on the barrel.
  • the operating means of each barrel are motorized. Such motorization facilitates the selection by the musician of the active pickup system or in the working position.
  • the invention also relates to a stringed instrument comprising a front face and at least one device according to the invention fixed or integrated into the front face so that each pick-up system in the working position is located opposite the strings .
  • the instrument is an electric guitar.
  • the invention also relates to a drawer comprising at least one electric or electronic system for capturing the vibrations of the strings of a musical instrument, characterized in that it is intended to be adapted in a removable manner on a barrel of a device according to the 'invention.

  • the transducers 31 convert the vibration of the metal strings 4 into an electrical signal.
  • the transducers 31 can be composed of one or more magnets, surrounded by a coil of copper wire. Each magnet generates a magnetic field. By vibrating, the strings 4, which are spun in magnetic material, cause the magnetic circuit to vary slightly, which induces an electromotive force in the coil, proportional to the speed of movement of the string 4.
  • the electrical signal produced is, for example , sent by wiring to the amplification circuit 15. It was not necessary to produce a sound to constitute it.
