Abstract

1342945 Stringed musical instruments A T ROBINSON 5 June 1972 [17 Nov 1971] 53330/71 Heading G5J In an instrument of the zither family the strings are arranged in five sets of six, each set being tuned to a chord and the pitches of the chords being adjustable by means of sliding bridges 16a-16e. Each bridge has a ridge 17 with notches for the strings, a base 18 to prevent tilting, and a vertical face 19 which can be aligned with scale markings on the sound board. A second chord may be obtained from the portions of the strings of a single set between abridge 16a, &c. and an auxiliary bridge 20. The sound board 10, which has a sound hole 21, may form the belly of a box-body or may be mounted on legs as a table. The instrument comprises conventional fixed pegs 12, tuning pegs 13 and nuts 11.
