IMPORTED REVISION FROM WIKISPACES
This is an imported revision from Wikispaces. The revision metadata is included below for reference:
- This revision was by author microtonalguitarist and made on 2009-03-12 01:54:44 UTC.
- The original revision id was 62169476.
- The revision comment was:
The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.
Original Wikitext content:
=Microtonal guitar resources= Lots of people like guitars. Lots of people get into microtones. Inexplicably, some people are in both of those categories, and now we have microtonal guitars. The ease with which guitars can be microtonalized is definitely to blame. ===Go Fretless!=== The most direct way to get microtones, which leaves the most up to your ears. Tried by many, pursued with a dogged obsession with intonation by fewer. Lots of resources out there -- you might start with http://www.unfretted.com/ ===Refretting=== John Starrett FAQ on do-it-yourself fretting - http://infohost.nmt.edu/%7Ejstarret/guitar.html Buzz Kimball on the same - http://www.nonoctave.com/heroes/buzz/retrofretting.html Dante Rosati: Adventures in Just Intonation Guitar - http://users.rcn.com/dante.interport//justguitar1.html ===Get a new neck!=== John Carruthers - http://www.carruthersguitars.com/ Paul Guy - http://www.truetemperament.com/ - curved frets in "true" 12-tET, Bach/Lehman well-temperament, and meantone Lukas Brunner produces a guitar with removable neck - http://www.brunner-guitars.com/ ===Interchangeable Fretboards=== Mark Rankin makes magnetic interchangeable fretboards: [[mailto:Mark%20Rankin%[email protected]|Mark Rankin [email protected]]] (remove spaces) ===Adjustable Frets=== A guitar with moveable frets that are split, and thus independent for each string, is perhaps ideal for a musical environment in which the musical scale varies from piece to piece. John Schneider calls his a "Well-Tempered Guitar." Wim Hoogewerf has one too. Hervé Chouard produces guitars with adjustable frets: http://www.chouard.de/ ===Quick n Dirty=== Take a trashy guitar and move the bridge to a different spot. You'll get a (not necessarily close to equal) division of the octave with ~11-15 notes. [[http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/24|Dan Stearns]] has done this, and so has [[http://www.elvenminstrel.com/music/tuning/equal/13equal/13tet.htm|David Finnamore]]! ===[[http://www.tritare.com/|The Tritare]]=== The Tritare, developed by folks in New Brunswick, Canada, seems to be fretted to a normal 12, but because it features 3-string groups the sound is FM-like and inescapably xenharmonic. Or is it? See [[http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20060603/fob7.asp|this Science News article]]. ==List of Microtonal Guitarists== Seth Austen (New England) - http://www.sethausten.com/ David Beardsley (NYC) - http://www.biink.com/db/ Jon Catler (NYC) - http://www.microtones.com/bios_jc.htm David 'Fuze" Fiuczynski (Boston?) - http://www.torsos.com/ Fabrizio Fulvio Fausto Fiale (Italy) - http://www.webalice.it/tetraf/ Neil Haverstick (Denver) - http://www.microstick.net/ Eric Hinds (Athens, GA) - http://www.unfretted.com/loader.php?LINK=quarter/erik_quartertone Wim Hoogewerf (France) - http://www.xs4all.nl/%7Ehuygensf/english/hoogewerf.html Sten Hostfalt (NYC) - http://www.stenhostfalt.com/ Igliashon Jones (Santa Cruz, CA) - http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pageartist.cfm?bandID=376205 Marc Jones (???)
