Abstract

New perfected string music instrument, such as guitar, bandurria, lute, violin or any other string, characterized in that it presents a form that forces the strings to pass inside the soundboard, so that which has a raised or bulged lid, whose shape can adopt an appropriate profile to allow the passage of the aforementioned strings, which causes that when being pulsated they vibrate inside the aforesaid resonance box and produce richer notes that stand out for its great purity and bright sound, while delaying the bridge by adding a small mast, at the opposite end to the elastic mast that carries this type of instrument and in a straight line with it, at the free end and place the tailpiece that fixes the strings of the instrument, while between the bridge and the place where the strings enter the interior of the box a sufficient space is enabled to be able to press comfortably and practically to the same ones, at the same time that, in the case of instruments that have frets, the tuning fork is given greater length and therefore the own mast so that the set of strings can give good octaves, constructive disposition that is also valid, in terms of prolonging the tuning fork and therefore the neck, in those stringed instruments that do not have or carry frets.
