Ghitari Headless

[Vladimir Tepes]

au corzi speciale

 

pui corzile invers ca intr-un floyd obisnuit cu plumbul la cheite, acolo in loc de cheite are un suport cu gauri o lamela simpla prin care trec corzile si se opresc in plumb, apoi in floyd s emonteaza usor cu piedica.

[vektor]

nu e floyd. E un sistem propriu, si seamana mai degraba cu un Bigsby sau un Kahler 7x00. Foloseste corzi double-ball-end.

[Demos]

poate sa fie si floyd rose speedloader pentru unele chitare .

[Guest PhenomenOn]

Eu detin una si pot sa va spun ca sunt chitari foarte bune, nu se dezacordeaza, se canta foarte usor pe una si se pun corzile foarte usor... Acum, totul tine de gust, puteti asculta Vitto Bratta, Allan Holdsworth, Brett Garsed, Tj Helmerich, etc. sa vedeti despre ce e vorba

chitari de gin-gin-gin...

[Guest Torque1981]

Mie personal nu imi plac ca design dar performantele lor nu le pun la indoiala.

Eu unul nu mi-as cumpara - prefer stilul mai clasic de chitara (STRAT si Les Paul).

 

Totusi pentru amatori de Steinberger

[Guest PhenomenOn]

chitari de gin-gin-gin...

 

nu e adevarat, mai degraba chitara de fusion

[denis_symbiotic]

nu e adevarat, mai degraba chitara de fusion

 

poti sa canti orice pe ea de la fusion(Allan Holdsworth, Derryl Gabel) pana la death metal (Paul Masvidal-Cynic) si prog rock( Mike Rutherford-Genesis) si cam orice.

[Susceptor]

Mie mi-ar placea daca ar avea un cap cu o forma originala; nu conteaza ca e de decor, vreau doar sa fie pus acolo.

[denis_symbiotic]

sunt si modele cu headstock, extrem de rare(s-au construit vreo 350 de bucati) si la pretz mai mic de 3500$ nici nu gasesti una

Eh, acum mai vii de-acasa. Cred ca e dubla

 

Am impresia ca faptul ca "are fund" ii afecteaza cursa trem-ului.

[denis_symbiotic]

nu iti fa griji merge super si ala nu e orice tremolo e trans-trem adica iti poate transpune acordajul din semiton in semiton pana la doua tonuri in sus sau doua in jos ca sa nu te cari cu tzashpe ghitari dupa tine la concerte

[vektor]

Yeah, yeah. Still cool though.

[Susceptor]

Nu, nu, ziceam de chitari in care capul e de decor, cum erau chitarile facute de Floyd Rose.

[Black_gdansk]

Ce pareri aveti despre ghitarile headless ( is special Steinberger)?

Mie mi se par foarte ingenioase, revolutionare si moderne.

Si ca design mi se par cele mai frumoase. Am obsevat ca multa lume nu le agreaza deoarece sunt prea radicale. Sunt curios si de parerile voastre.

 

Sunt instrumente foarte apreciate, din cate stiu eu.

 

Mie personal imi plac insa nu acelea care corp asemanator cu o chitara normala ci acele cu corp patrat.

mer'e si-un blues

[Guest .::Chris::.]

urate

arata ca niste lopeti/maturi.

mie personal nu imi plac.

[kapak]

sunt superchitari, dupa parerea mea.

[karpi]

1. economie de materiale

 

2. Reclama agresiva

 

3 . Teoretic ar trebui sa aiba sustain mai bun . Nu mai ai reflexii ale corzilor de dupa pragus.

Lucru ce in schimb are influenta si asupra timbrului.

 

Neavand un sound "legendar " si nici n-au devenit chitare legendare in ultimi 20 de ani sufera doar o recosmetizare , poate prinde la tineri care inca nu au vazut.Plus internetul cu posibilitati noi de reclama.

Mai sunt si Kramer Duke Series: http://www.vintagekramer.com/alum.htm

 

 

 

 

In 1975 Fender a avut o tentativa de bas headless.

 

 

Cort si Warwick au produs:

Pe astea cum le agati in stand de perete?

cu fundu-n sus

[Guest morphine]

mie sincer nu imi plac, desi nu am avut ocazia sa vad una decat in poze tot mi se par neterminate si urate

[Guest JoN]

Interesante....dar aratã cam sec cu ciotu` ãla.

[gadjo]

am tot ascultat Allan Holdsworth in ultima vreme si uneori suna demential. nu neaparat a chitara, mai degraba pian electric dar oricum, e superb.

 

or fi urate dar suna deosebit... deci daca s-ar pune problema, mi-as lua una

[Guest]

Since I am in the business of making headless basses, I'll start with the story of the Fender headless bass, which was developed by Gene Fields in 1975.I got to know Gene during my years in the R&D department.

 

Gene was with Fender research and development for 23 years!Some of his designs include the P.S. 210K keyless pedal guitar, the Starcaster thinline hollowbody guitar, and the second generation Marauder guitar.

...

Two years later, the company was purchased by the Fred Gretsch company, and rather than relocate again, Gene formed GFI Musical Products in Arlington, Texas, building high-quality pedal steel guitars.

 

A few years ago, I went to the Arlington Fall Nationals guitar show and bumped into Gene.We had not seen each other for 20 years, so we grabbed a cup of coffee and sat down for a talk.As I told Gene about my company and our "Headless" and Key Factor bass guitars, he said he had something interesting to show me.I was amazed when he produced a Fender headless bass prototype.I was surprised because I never knew a project like that was ever developed at Fender.I asked Gene to explain how this instrument came to be.Here is his story.

...

Gene was asked to research the cause of this problem and eliminate it if possible.He tried many things, including double truss rods, all-maple bodies, uncarved necks to make them stiffer, as well as a multitude of different strings.Finally, he made a solid aluminum neck.

 

All this research resulted in making the dead spot move to new areas of the neck.The Aluminum neck moved the dead spot up to the seventh fret.

 

This was the clue Gene was looking for, it told him the dead spot was a result of the resonant frequency of the neck.At this point, Gene attached a 11/2-pound C clamp to the head of a stock P-Bass neck as ballast, to dampen neck vibration.This had the effect of moving the dead spot down in frequency and almost disappearing.

 

Unfortunately, as most key-headed bass guitars are head-heavy to begin with, adding weight to the head was out of the question.An opposite approach was to lighten the head of the neck.Gene took another stock P-Bass neck and removed all strings but the first one.This moved the dead spot up in frequency but did not eliminate it.Then Gene installed the first string in the fourth string position, removed the other three keys and began sawing off the head 1" at a time.He found that each time additional weight was removed from the head of the neck, the dead spot would move up in frequency.Then, Gene removed the last key, cut all but 1" of the head off and drilled a hole for the ball end of the string.

...

Eventually, Fender gave the bass to Gene, and it is still in his possession.

...

I'd like to thank Gene Fields for sharing his story with us.

suna superb si ele, dar Allan are trucurile lui de a face orice ghitara sa nu sune a ghitara , he's the man!

[srbnmircea]

Nu stiu de ce dar cand vad o chitara headless parca ar fi decapitata cu ghilotina,zici ca e mutilata.Mai bine le-ar pune numai pentru decor si ar mai regla si balansul.

[denis_symbiotic]

pai tocmai de aia nu au headstock: ca sa fie mai bine balansate si mai ergonomice.

[Susceptor]

In ce sens balansate?
