Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] This invention relates to a tuner for an electric guitar, which is used to assist in tuning an electric guitar among musical instruments.

[Summary of the idea]

This invention is a tuner for electric guitars used to assist in the tuning of musical instruments, especially electric guitars, by providing an attachment to attach it to the electric guitar. This allows a guitar tuner to be attached.

Furthermore, the hole in the mounting tool for attaching to an electric guitar is made into an elongated hole so that it can be attached to a variety of electric guitars.

Furthermore, by pasting a cushioning material on the back side of the mount, it is possible to prevent the electric guitar from being scratched and to increase the fixing force of the mount.

[Conventional technology]

Until now, there was no tuner for musical instruments that could be attached to a guitar. However, since guitars need to be tuned between performances, some musical instrument tuners are equipped with an OUTPUT terminal.
It has been reported that a tuner for musical instruments is played while being connected between an electric guitar and a guitar amplifier.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, conventional musical instrument tuners cannot be attached to guitars, so when tuning an electric guitar between performances, it can only be done at the location where the musical instrument tuner is installed. I couldn't tune it quickly. In addition, the electric guitar and musical instrument tuner must be connected with a long cord, which has the disadvantage that noise tends to occur and the S/N ratio of the guitar sound deteriorates.

Therefore, in order to solve these drawbacks of the conventional electric guitar tuner, this invention provides a mounting device so that it can be attached to the electric guitar using the end pin of the electric guitar, so that it can be easily attached on the spot even in between performances. The aim is to obtain a tuner for electric guitars that can be tuned to

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention targets electric guitars that use the input and output terminals of musical instrument tuners, and provides a mounting tool to attach the electric guitar tuner to the electric guitar. It can be attached to an electric guitar using the end pin.

In addition, since the thickness of the body and the position of the end pin differ depending on the electric guitar, by making the hole in the mounting tool for attaching an electric guitar tuner to an electric guitar an elongated hole, various types of electric guitars can be attached to the electric guitar tuner. can be installed.

Furthermore, by providing a cushioning material on the back side of the mount, which is the part where the mount comes into contact with the electric guitar, it is possible to prevent the electric guitar from being scratched and to increase the fixing force of the installation.

[Effect]

With the electric guitar tuner configured as described above, the electric guitar tuner can be securely attached to various types of electric guitars without damaging the electric guitar, and it can also be used for tuning between performances. It can be easily done on the spot.

〔Example〕

Examples of this invention will be described below based on the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an electric guitar tuner according to the present invention attached to an electric guitar. The input terminal 3 provided on the electric guitar tuner 1 and the OUTPUT terminal of the electric guitar 7 are connected with a cord, and the output signal of the electric guitar 7 is connected to the input terminal 3.
Receive it at Output terminal 4 outputs the signal received at input terminal 3 as is, regardless of whether switch 2 is ON or OFF, and is connected to a musical instrument amplifier or mixer. When switch 2 is ON, the tuning function works,
A string name display lamp 9 indicates which string is being tuned, and a meter 8 indicates how far that string deviates from the reference frequency. Furthermore, attachment 1
The tuner 1 for an electric guitar can be fixed to the electric guitar 7 by passing the end pin 5 through the hole 6 of the hole 6 and fixing it to the electric guitar 7. The electric guitar tuner according to the present invention is constructed as described above and is attached to an electric guitar.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the installation configuration of an electric guitar tuner and a fixture according to an embodiment of the present invention. Attachment tool 1 to groove 13 of tuner 11 for electric guitar
2, the electric guitar tuner 11 can be attached to the fixture 12.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an installation configuration of an electric guitar tuner and a fixture according to another embodiment of the present invention.
The electric guitar tuner 14 can be attached to the fixture 15 by inserting the bent portion 17 of the fixture 15 into the groove 16 of the electric guitar tuner 14.

FIG. 4 is an installation configuration diagram of an electric guitar tuner and a fixture according to another embodiment of the present invention.
The electric guitar tuner 18 can be attached to the fixture 19 by inserting the projection 20 of the electric guitar tuner 18 into the mounting hole 21 of the fixture 19. Furthermore, a cushioning material 22 is pasted on the back side of the mounting tool 19 to prevent the electric guitar from being scratched and to provide a fixing force so that the mounting tool 19 can be securely fixed to the electric guitar. Furthermore, with the configurations shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, the electric guitar tuner can be attached to and removed from the electric guitar while the mount remains attached to the electric guitar.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a fixture according to an embodiment of the present invention. The hole 24 of the mount 23 is an elongated hole so that it can be attached to various types of electric guitars. Further, a cushioning material 25 is pasted on the back side of the mounting tool 23 to prevent the electric guitar from being scratched and to provide a fixing force so that the mounting tool 23 can be securely fixed to the electric guitar.

FIG. 6 is a block diagram of the electric guitar tuner of the present invention. When the switch 27 is ON, the electric guitar output signal input from the input terminal 26 enters the waveform shaping section 28 and is waveform-shaped and sent to the signal processing section 29.
The frequency of the signal is extracted, a tuning determination is made, and the result is displayed on the display unit 30. Further, the signal input from the input terminal 26 is output from the output terminal 31 regardless of whether the switch 27 is ON or OFF.

In the embodiments described above, the electric guitar tuner of the present invention is intended to be attached to an electric guitar using a mounting tool, and the hole of the mounting tool is made into an elongated hole so that it can be used for various types of electric guitars. Installation was possible. Further, by providing a cushioning material on the back side of the mounting tool, it is possible to attach the electric guitar tuner to the electric guitar without damaging the electric guitar.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, this invention allows an electric guitar tuner to be attached to an electric guitar by providing a fitting, and allows for easy tuning on the spot even between performances. Furthermore, there is no need to connect the electric guitar and electric guitar tuner with a long cord, and it is also effective in improving the S/N ratio due to noise on the cord. Furthermore, by making the holes in the mounting bracket for mounting on electric guitars oblong, it can be mounted on various electric guitars with different thicknesses and end pin positions, and a cushioning material is provided on the back side of the mounting bracket that comes into contact with the electric guitar. By doing so, it is possible to increase the fixing force of the installation without damaging the electric guitar. Furthermore, the tuner for electric guitars can be attached and detached while the mount is attached to the electric guitar. The present invention has the effects described above.
