  • Patent number: 10643583
    Abstract: Improvements in a stringed instrument finger board is disclosed. The finger board customizes the metal edge on the frets adding vertical indented scalloped elongated slots. The slots are created between each fret without actually cutting grooves into the actual wood on the fretboard. The design can also work with a fretless embodiment with vertical indented scallop shape elongated slots cut in between each string where the strings aren't sitting on any frets. A guitarist can pull any string on the fretboard up or down into the slots to create new bending techniques. The frets can have an angled edge to adjust the tone and allow bending the string(s) over the frets. The neck groove allows altering the string pitch, bending the string into the groove for to add an extra X-note or a ghost note beat to a 2 note pull off to add a triplet.

  • Patent number: 10004938
    Abstract: Elevating rims allow the central hub of a back roller to be elevated from the ground. Elevating the back roller allows the user to increase their flexibility as they bend their back over the central roller. A user can purchase one or a set of rims to interchange the back roller and rims to accommodate different stretching and exercises. The joining mechanism can be threaded coupling in one or both of the hubs or can be a telescoping connection with or without a spring-loaded pin in a hole. The rims can have ribs to allow an installer to grip the rim and twist the rim on an axle. The back roller can be fabricated with an internal thread where changeable rims can be threaded into the inner diameter of the back roller to change the amount of elevation.
