Metodi di fissaggio del corpo della chitarra (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
Il metodo con cui il manico è assemblato al corpo della chitarra elettrica svolge un ruolo essenziale nel suono dello strumento musicale. In realtà, ci sono 3 tecniche principali di giunzione al corpo:
- manico avvitato
- manico incollato
- manico a conduzione
Manico avvitato (bolt-on neck)
Inizialmente utilizzato da Fender, questo metodo produce strumenti musicali in kit con parti sostituibili.
Questo tipo di fissaggio conferisce brillantezza alla chitarra.
Manico incollato o set neck
L’assemblaggio viene effettuato tramite una giuntura a maschio e femmina.
Promosso dalla marca Gibson, e successivamente dalla marca PRS, aumenta la durata del suono (sustain) e il vibrato.
Manico a conduzione (neck-thru)
Questa pratica risulta essere la più costosa. Il manico si estende dall’inizio alla fine della chitarra elettrica ed è parte integrante del corpo.
In questo modo garantisce una perfetta propagazione delle vibrazioni.
Su cosa basarsi per scegliere una chitarra elettrica (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
Grazie al suo peso leggero, la chitarra elettrica è ideale per tutti i musicisti, anche per chi si sta avvicinando a questo strumento.
È adatta a numerosi stili musicali come:
- funk
- blues
- rock
- metal
- jazz
Per scegliere quella più adatta, bisogna tenere in considerazione alcuni criteri di selezione come:
- tessiture del corpo
- legno
- casse di risonanza
- microfoni
- manualità del manico
- numero di corde
Guitar Neck Attributes (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
The size of a guitar neck varies depending on the model. Although the difference is not significant, it has an effect on the strings.
This has an impact on the melodies.
A short guitar neck
Since the strings are less tense and more flexible, playing becomes easier, as is the case with Les Paul guitars.
A longer neck
When the guitar neck is larger, like that of an Ibanez or Stratocaster, their vibration is livelier and string tension increases.
Guitar Scale Length
The scale length refers to the length of string vibration between the bridge and nut.
This size affects not only sound but also playability.
In fact, a shorter scale length will feel more comfortable.
The two preferred scale lengths are Fender Stratocaster’s 25.50 inches and Gibson’s 24.75 inches.
Electric Guitar Woods (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
The woods used by most professional luthiers determine the resonance and sound of the electric guitar.
For the neck, the most common woods are mahogany and maple. For the fingerboard, it is usually:
- maple
- rosewood
- ebony
Changing the wood can easily alter the sound of the guitar.
Below are two of the most commonly used woods:
Rosewood
This dark wood, with its unmatched density and hardness, is chosen for fingerboard construction. It provides a warm resonance.
Mahogany
It offers a deep, round sound with strong sustain.
Guitar Bodies (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
The type of resonant body has an impact on the sound of the guitar.
Semi-hollow body
It combines characteristics of both hollow and solid bodies.
This offers a semi-acoustic sound with more audible midrange and lower frequency. Thus, it is ideal for starting out with a small amplifier.
Hollow body
Guitars with hollow bodies are often used in jazz music. They are perfect for beginner guitarists as they produce better resonance.
Solid body
The first solid-body guitar was invented in the 1950s.
Its lightweight design makes it easy to handle. This style of guitar is popular in rock music.
Selecting Guitar Pickups (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
When acquiring an electric guitar, attention should be paid to pickups. The pickups differ based on their winding.
There are:
- Guitars with humbucker pickups, like Gibson, which provide a higher output volume.
- Electric guitars with both single-coil and humbucker pickups.
- Electric guitars with single-coil pickups are more suitable for country, blues, or rock music.
How Many Strings? (Traveler Guitar Ultra Light Vintage Red)
Usually, electric guitar strings are made of nickel or steel.
This makes them different from nylon strings.
The 12-string guitar
The 12-string electric guitar was particularly popular among folk music bands in the 1960s.
The 6-string electric guitar
This 6-string guitar has three bass strings and three treble strings.
The 7-string guitar
A 7-string electric guitar is a type of guitar for metal players. The strings on these models are similar to those on a standard 6-string electric guitar but have an additional lower-pitched string.
