    摘要: The piezoelectric transducer saddle (11) of the present invention is a thin, generally rectangular member that is designed to fit into a bridge slot (13) of a musical instrument such as a guitar (14). The piezoelectric element is oriented vertically in the saddle and constitutes a structural member of the saddle. A first embodiment of the saddle (11) comprises a piezoelectric element (22) that forms the saddle itself. Electrical contacts (42, 44) are engaged to the side of the piezoelectric element to produce electrical output. A preferred embodiment of the saddle (110) is a laminated structure wherein the laminated layers (118) are disposed vertically, and a vertical layer (122) composed of a piezoelectric material is generally centrally disposed within the laminated structure. A metallic electrical contact (120, 130) is engaged on each side of the piezoelectric material to receive electrical signals generated by the piezoelectric material.

    摘要: A stringed musical instrument such as a guitar, banjo or the like has a plurality of strings (15, 16, 17, 18) stretched between a bridge (19) and a nut (20). The strings (15,16,17,18) are of substantially circular cross section and made from an elastomeric material such as silicone rubber; all strings are monolithic. The bridge (19) incorporates one or more piezo-electric transducer (41, 42) mounted as a bimorphic element in a simple beam mounting between fixed supports (40) on the bridge (19) and in acoustic contact with the body of the instrument through resilient baffle pads (43, 44) in contact with the face of the piezo-electric element (41,42) remote from the supports (40). By using elastomeric strings the length of the fingerboard of the instrument can be reduced to about 0.45 m, which is substantially less than that of a conventional instrument utilising wire wound nylon or steel strings.
