  • Stringed musical instrument neck adjustable to counteract warping
    Patent number: 4235145
    Abstract: A neck for a stringed instrument which is adjustable to counteract warping by tensioning a strap of substantially inextensible material positioned within the neck. In one embodiment, the strap is positioned inside a conduit inside the neck which can be bowed to counteract the warping. The strap is positioned in the conduit in the shape of an arc with the ends of the strap closer to the finger board or the strings than the central region of the strap by a plurality of rod members fixedly secured to the conduit. One end of the strap is fixedly secured to one end of the conduit and the other end can be moved to tension the strap and bow the conduit and neck to counteract warping. In another embodiment, the strap is shaped as an arc inside the conduit by an elongated filler element having an arcuate bottom surface which progressively increases in depth from the ends of the filler element toward the central region of it.
