A harness attachment to shoulder strap harness for holding a guitar in the front of the player which is attached to the left fret end and right strumming end of the guitar. The present invention has an additional right srumming end attachment which mounts over the right strumming end attachment of the shoulder strap harness. The attachment of the present invention includes a lower mounting member and an upper adjustable loop member movably attachable to the player's right hip area in a number of embodiments.

A modular automated assistive guitar is described comprising a base assembly, a pick assembly, a strumming mechanism and a fretting mechanism which, in combination with a standard guitar or similar stringed musical instrument (e.g., banjo, steel guitar, ukulele), forms a musical device that can be played by an individual with a range of independence, cognitive and physical abilities. The base assembly accepts, positions, and secures a standard guitar. The pick assembly includes quick attach and spring-loaded features for attaching and detaching picks, in addition to flexibility for smooth interaction with the guitar strings. The strumming mechanism provides cyclic motion and speed control to create pleasant and variable rhythm from the mounted guitar. The fretting mechanism allows a user to change chords and tone. An unmodified, traditional guitar is preferably used in the musical device. The guitar is easily interchangeable with another guitar or other stringed instrument, at the convenience of the user. The modular automated assistive musical device, with or without the guitar, is compact, light, portable, and easily adjustable to different individual's needs, motor skills, and dexterity.

This disclosure generally relates to a guitar pedal board configured to maintain an open position and a closed position. In one embodiment, a surface of a guitar pedal board is configured to receive and hold guitar pedals on a surface that may be inclined relative to a surface on which the guitar pedal board rests. In another embodiment, the guitar pedal board includes one or more retainer stands that hold the guitar pedal board in a closed position. In another embodiment, the guitar pedal board includes a support member that holds the guitar pedal board in an open position. In another embodiment, a first guitar pedal board includes an attachment foot configured to attach one or more guitar pedal boards to the first guitar pedal board.

A pickup for a guitar that has four (4) or more separate magnetic coils and selection means to select among the coil outputs. In some embodiments, the pickup is passive, not requiring an active pre-amplifier and voltage supply to shape the sound. In some embodiments, the selection means may be incremental or continuous, providing a wider degree to selectivity between and among the outputs of the separate coils.

This apparatus and system provides an acoustic hollow body guitar which allows for the careful adjustment of the instrument neck to body relative angle of inclination and thus the string to fret distance (action height). This adjustment has the capability of being accomplished while the guitar is in the tuned state and in the playing position. The traditional wood jointing is abandoned and replaced by a guitar neck to body hinge-less mounting bracket assembly apparatus. This system employs a single adjusting nut/dial that is accessed through either/and a port in the side of the upper bout or the sound-hole.

A system consisting of one or more components that enables the playing of a stringed instrument by contacting one or more strings of the instrument in such a manner as to cause the frequency emitted to change when the string is mechanically agitated so as to vibrate.
