  • Restoration of Regal Archtop Guitar
    Restoration of Regal Archtop Guitar Performed by Ron Cook January, 2004 For Michele O’Brien of Salinas, California Background The Regal name has been around since around 1896, but since 1900, when the original owner, Emil Wulschner, died, it has been owned by many companies, including Lyon & Healy and Harmony. Regal is best known for distributing Dobro guitars in the 1930's. (John Dopyera and his two brothers started the National Resophonic Company in the '20's. John split later and created the Dobro name and instruments, marketed by Regal.) The f-hole (Jazz) acoustic guitar was developed by Gibson in the '30's. No his- torical references note the actual date Regal started building f-hole acoustics, but it was between 1930 and 1940. They were built up into the 1960's by the Harmony Company. Regals are still made, but only resonator guitars--and they're now built in Korea and distributed by Saga Musical Instruments of San Francisco. John Dopyera and his Dobro Company also built electric guitars, f-hole and resonator, since 1933, for his own company and for Regal. It’s possible Dobro built this particular Regal archtop since there are no serial marks or internal labels, which Dopyera stopped inserting around 1938 after he acquired all rights to the National Guitar Company (his brother’s company). I used a flexible mirror and light to check the interi- or for any problems. I found none internally. I also didn’t find any labels, or penciled or stamped marks. Valuation This instrument is hard to set a value on since very few Regal archtop guitars have come on the market, and those were post-war instruments (1945 to 1960).

Stated below are the merits of the classes. 1. The instructor is Manuel Lopez Ramos, a native of Argentina, a guitar virtuoso, regarded by many as one of the greatest guitarist and teachers of all time. 2. Classes are divided into three groups, Basic, Intermediate and Advance. Thereby, allow- ing as many guitarists as possible to attend (the Segovia class at Berkeley was limited to roughly 10 students). 3. The methods used are the Sagreras Method Books, one of the most complete and precise method for the guitar. 4 Bonnone THE GUITAR IN THE ARTS by Vidal Revuelta (Continued from May-June 1965 issue of Guitarra) A) HE guitar, which had been exported to France, shone so brightly in the court of Louis XIV, that a French composer, Robert de Visee, producted a work entitled “Book of The Guitar” in 1682, four years after Gaspar Sanz brought out his treatise on guitar instruc- tion. But the guitar's unusual glory in the court of King Sol was, in effect, its swan song be- cause beginning in the Highteenth Century, Ital- ian music, invading both France and Spain, be- came the predominant musical perference in both countries.

Matthew William Hill ABSTRACT This thesis examines the rise of the electric guitar in the United States – arguably the most iconic and successful musical instrument of the 20th century – and the role of George Beauchamp in its invention and development. It focuses on Beauchamp's invention of the electromagnetic pickup, which is the component that makes an electric guitar an electric guitar. The research is based on examination of surviving instruments as well as archival research. An extensive contextual background is given regarding the historical development of electrical musical instruments in general and electric and electrified stringed instruments in particular.

    Revista Vernáculo 2002: (5) :33-45 GUITARRA ELÉTRICA: UM, ÍCONE NA CULTURA POP DO SECULOXX Neigmar de Souza' 1,1 - Introdução: Já se falou muito em cultura paI' e de seus ícones e muitos deles cstão bem situados cm nosso contexto cultural com artigos em revi stas, jornais e também Iivros~ Assim podemos falar da camiseta e da calça jcans qu e surgiram para o grande 2 público através do cinema norte-americano dos anos 50 , pode-sc fal ar do biquíni, da mini-saia, do chicle de bola, de Andy Warhol, Marilyn Monroe, refrigerantes e também drogas, maconha, LSD, cocaína e outras mais. Mas sobretudo podemos falar do rock que também ganhou público através do cinema nOite-americano da 3 década de 50 , transformando-se em um produto altamente consumido. O rock ajudou a mudar o comportamcnt.o social da juventude norte-americana a partir da segunda metade dos anos 50 e boa parte da juventude oc id ental do s anos 60, revolucionou costumes profundamente arraigados: A maneira de vestir, o comportamento sexual e o consumo de drogas são al guns exemplos, mas também ostentava-se uma rebeldia que para muitos não tinha causa. Como toda revolução tem seus líderes esta também tinha os seus, eram os atares jovens de Hollywood e os integrantes desses grupos musicais que começavam a ganhar cada vez mai s espaço nos meios de comunicação tocando o novo ritmo. Os integrantes desse grupos que mais influenciaram a juventude foram os cantores (Elvis Presley por exemplo) e em segundo pl ano os guitarristas (Chuck Berry outro exemplo).
