improved actuated stringed instruments with bridge vibration decoupling system

摘要

The invention describes an improved actuated acoustic stringed musical instrument, such as an acoustic guitar augmented with an actuation system. The solution to a vibrational problem proposed here addresses the need of the performer to fully control the vibrations of the soundboard of the instrument via the actuation system. The solution prevents from unwanted feedback vibrations or interference effects on the soundboard of the instrument between the actuation system and the natural vibration of the strings through the bridge of the instrument.
