  • 5.2 Humbuckers

    5.2 Humbuckers

    5.2 Humbucker 5-9 5.2 Humbuckers The interference occurring with single-coil pickups motivated the development of the Humbucker. Single-coil pickups do not only pickup the vibration of the strings and generate a corresponding electric voltage, but they are also sensitive to magnetic fields as they are radiated by transformers, fluorescent lamps, or mains cables. Instead of having one coil, the "Hum-Bucker" consists of two coils connected to form a dipole and wired such that they are out of phase. The magnetic field generated by external interference sources induces in each coil the same voltage. Because of the anti-phase connection of the two coils the voltages cancel each other out. If the field generated by the permanent magnet would also flow through both coils with the same polarity, the signals generated by the vibrating string also be cancelled – this of course must not happen. For this reason the permanent field flows through the two coils in an anti-parallel manner such that the voltages induced by the vibrating strings are out of phase. Because the coils are connected out of phase, the voltages are turned twice by 180° i.e. they are again in phase (180° +180° = 360° corresp. to 0°). With this arrangement the signal-to-noise ratio can be improved somewhat compared to single-coil pickups (chapter 5.7). As early as the 1930s designers sought to develop a marketable pickup based on compensation principles which were generally already known. Seth Lover, technician with the guitar manufacturer Gibson, achieved the commercial break-through.

    Guitar Body Shapes May 14, 2020

    Guitar Virtual Learning Guitar Body Shapes May 14, 2020 Guitar Lesson: May 14, 2020 Objective/Learning Target: What different guitar shapes are there, and what are the differences between those shapes? Warm-Up Activity Watch the following video by YouTuber “Minor7thb5” (which is a music theory reference!). In it, he plays the same piece of music two times with two different guitars. The guitars are of similar build quality and materials, but they are different shapes. One is a parlor guitar and the other is a dreadnaught. How do they sound different to you? These differences are subtle. It might be easier to hear by using headphones. 2nd Warm-Up Activity These were the two guitars he played. The one on the left is an Eastman parlor guitar, the one on the right is a Martin dreadnought. How do they look different? How do they look the same? Guitar Shapes For the lesson today, we are going to do a brief overview of the different guitar shapes and styles you can find today. This lesson will build on the lessons from earlier in the week where we discussed the differences between classical, steel-string, and electric guitars. Now, we will see what different body shapes there are, especially for the steel-string and electric guitars, and what makes them different! A Brief history of guitar shapes The word “guitar” comes from the Greek word “kithara,” which shows up in Greek mythology from thousands of years ago. These stringed instruments didn’t look much like our guitars now, but they were strummed like our guitars.
