Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a tailpiece for a stringed musical instrument such as an electric guitar.

For strings such as electric guitars, one end of the string is usually attached to the tailpiece, and the other end is wound around a thread winder in the Tenjin section. It's easy to go crazy.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a tailpiece for a stringed instrument that is less likely to cause string play and can maintain accurate pitch for a long period of time.

That is, the present invention includes a support plate 3 for the string 2 that is swingably attached to the body 1 of a string instrument, and a support plate 3 for the string 2 that is attached to the body 1 of a string instrument so as to be able to swing.
It consists of a locking block 4 that locks the end 2a of the
A string instrument characterized in that a piece 5 supporting the string 2 is attached to the support plate 3 so as to be movable back and forth and up and down, and a screw 6 for tightening the string end 2a is screwed into the locking block 4. It is a tail piece. In the illustrated embodiment, reference numeral 7 denotes a string winder provided in the tenjin section 8, and the string 2 is passed through the string insertion hole 7a to hang the string ball 2b, and then passed through the upper top 9 and the rod 10 to make the string winder. It can be stopped with piece A. In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes a set screw, which fixes the front edge 3a of the support plate 3, whose lower surface is inclined, through the mounting holes 3b provided in the tail piece A.
12 is a roughly L-shaped piece 5.
13 is a female threaded portion of an adjusting screw 14 for vertically moving the bridge, which is curved at the rear of the bridge 5; 15 is an adjusting screw for vertically moving the piece screwed into the female threaded portion of the string supporting portion 12; 16 is a spring interposed between the screw insertion piece 3c of the support plate 3 and the piece 5, 17 is a string insertion hole formed in the piece 5, and 18 is a locking block 4.
19 is the female thread of the screw 6 formed at the lower end of the block, 20 is a spring tensioned between the block 4 and the body 1, 21 is a tremolo playing lever and the support plate 3 It is planted in

Since the present invention has the above configuration,
After hooking the string 2 to the string winder 7 of the tenjin section 8 in the opposite way to the usual way, the string end 2a is hooked onto the piece 5 of the tailpiece A through the through hole 18 and wound around the screw 6, and then tightened. The string can be tuned by the string winder 7, and there is no need to wind the string many times as in the conventional case, and tuning can be done accurately by simply tightening or loosening the string 2 slightly. Incidentally, fine adjustment of the pitch can be made accurately by moving the piece 5 back and forth. Therefore, according to the present invention, by tensioning the string 2, it is possible to perform a roughly tuned string, and there is no need to wind the string around the string winder 7 many times, so there is little risk of play in the string 2 even when playing with tremolo etc. This has the effect of maintaining accurate pitch and tuning for a long time without any distortion.
