摘要： A pitch adjustment device for selectively adjusting the pitch of at least one of a plurality of strings on a stringed musical instrument. The device comprises a support frame configured to be mounted onto the stringed musical instrument. A string puller is rotatably coupled to the support frame. A string support is coupled to the string puller. The string support is adjustably positionable along the string puller to selectively position the string support on the string puller in alignment with each of the strings one at a time. The string support also has a string retainer for securing a string. A lever is coupled to the string puller such that pivoting the lever rotates the string puller and the string support relative to the frame about the first axis. The lever has a normal position and an actuated position in which the lever is pivoted to adjust the pitch.

摘要： Disclosed are apparatus and related methods for changing the pitch of a stringed instrument, such as an standard, fixed-pitch, resonating or Dobro-type guitar, by attaching the stringed instrument onto a transformable stand comprising a foot pedal assembly and string pitch changing mechanism. In one embodiment, the apparatus and related methods involve affixing the strings from an existing guitar to an improved pitch-changing mechanism, such as disclosed string pitch changer housing, that does not require the deconstruction of the guitar body. Rather, the existing guitar is securely placed on its back on a transformable stand with the use of specially designed plates that hold the instrument with screws, securing the body of the instrument to the stand.

摘要： A string puller for selectively adjusting the pitch of the string(s) of a stringed musical instrument. Each string of the instrument is attached to a respective string puller. Each string puller comprises a pivoting member rotatably mounted on a pivot at a pivot support on the pivoting member. The pivoting member has a knife-edge surface which supports the string such that contact of the string at a first end of the scale ends at said knife-edge surface throughout a normal range of pivoting of said pivoting member. The pivoting member is disposed on a lever for pivoting the pivoting member to adjust the tension on the string.

摘要： Pedal-actuated means for increasing or decreasing the pitch of individual strings, from their predetermined, tuned pitch, in a guitar or the like of the type having one or more necks. Each string of each neck is attached at its head end to an ordinary tuning machine and at its tail end to a tuning member pivotable from a normal position to a pitch increasing position or a pitch decreasing position. Each tuning member may have operatively connected thereto a first pull rod for moving the tuning member to its pitch increasing position and a second pull rod for moving the tuning member to its pitch decreasing position. The guitar or like instrument has a plurality of pedals, each capable of alternatively actuating a rocking assembly for each neck of the instrument. Each pull rod associated with each string of a neck may be attached to any one or ones of the rocking assemblies for that neck, so that each pedal may raise the pitch of certain desired strings and lower the pitch of other desired strings in any combination for each neck.

摘要： Disclosed is an improved vibrato device. The typical components of the disclosed device include, but are not limited to, a dual spring-loaded lever arm 10. The lever arm 10 is intended to sit separate and away from the instrument's strings 70 to allow for the user to manipulate the instrument's vibrato while playing by manually moving the lever arm 10 closer to or farther from the instrument. The lever arm 10 connects to the dual spring system 15; the dual spring system 15 houses the vibrato device's springs that allow vibrato manipulation and sits attached to the tremolo system's tailpiece 60, which anchors the vibrato device to the instrument, and the pivoting metal bar 40. The pivoting metal bar 40 is the strings' 70 anchor-point at the base of the instrument, and the bar 40 pivots in response to the lever arm 10 being raised or lowered. When the bar 40 pivots, it either lessens the strings' 70 tension when the lever arm 10 is lowered or increases the strings' 70 tension when the lever arm 10 is raised.

摘要： A pitch adjustment device for selectively adjusting the pitch of the string(s) of a stringed musical instrument. Each string of the instrument is attached to a respective pitch adjustment device. Each pitch adjustment device includes a pivotable string puller wherein pivoting of the string puller adjusts the pitch on the string. A pulley is rotatably mounted to the string puller such that movement of the pulley causes the string puller to pivot. A cable is wrapped around the pulley and has a first side extending from one side of the pulley and a second side extending form the other side of the pulley. A plurality of actuators are operably coupled to the first and second sides of the cable. The actuators move the cable, which moves the pulley, which in turn pivots the string puller, thereby adjusting the pitch of the string.
