The foldable guitar has a hinge (2) at the base of the handle section (1) allowing guitar folding. The guitar casing has an internal amplifier and headphone access.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

Il s'agit d'une guitare pliable avec amplificateur intégré ou non, pour écouteurs individuels. La guitare est munie dans tous les cas d'une sortie standard. L'ensemble guitare amplificateur tient dans une valise de 50 cm X 14 cm X 10 cm, et présente une fois montée les possibilités d'une guitare électrique normale
Les guttares électriques sont encombrantes et nécessitent un amplificateur volumineux ou bruyant ne permettant pas d'avoir en permanence et en tous lieux un instrument autonome à disposition.
It is a foldable guitar with built-in amplifier or not, for individual headphones. In all cases, the guitar has a standard output. The amplifier guitar set fits in a suitcase of 50 cm X 14 cm X 10 cm, and presents once mounted the possibilities of a normal electric guitar
Electric guttares are bulky and require a bulky or noisy amplifier which does not allow you to have a stand-alone instrument permanently at all times.

On the page, it is necessary beforehand-to put-on-or to bury the handle at the hinge, a flexible bracelet, to hold the strings without damaging them.

A l'extrémité supérieure du manche, les cordes sont fixées par leur boule dans un peigne cylindrique pour les maintenir en place lors du pliage.  At the upper end of the handle, the strings are fixed by their ball in a cylindrical comb to hold them in place during folding.

Le sillet est lui-même percé ou précédé d'une plaque percée, pour laisser passer les cordes et les maintenir en place lors du pliage. Un patin en contact avec les encoches du sillet peut remplir cette fonction.

The nut is itself pierced or preceded by a pierced plate, to let the strings pass and keep them in place during folding. A pad in contact with the notches of the nut can fulfill this function.
