History of the electric guitar - the creation of an icon
History of the electric guitar is the one story building of the most popular music history. In the twentieth century, the guitar had already been shown to be an extraordinary tool. Initially seen as an essential tool popular, the guitar has been prepared by the likes of Andres Segovia as a tool for high performance.
The guitar was used as an accompanying instrument primarily used for rhythm or melody. In '20 'and '30' s, however, the guitar was controlled by Bronze popular sections in Swing, Jazz and Big Band. Acoustic Guitar, simply could not compete with the volume levels of other instruments. Even the addition steel string was sufficient to prevent the guitar from being drowned by other instruments.
In early 1930, George Beauchamp, a Hawaiian guitarist and Adolph
Rickenbacker, an electronic engineer, met at the guitar manufacturer Dopyra Brothers Los Angeles, California. Together, they have finally developed a diagram of a revolutionary idea: an electric guitar. The premise is simple: the adjustment of the guitar
with two magnets, a magnetic field is created that could capture the vibrations of a string and transfer to a wire coil resonance. In 1937, Paul Beauchamp Barth finally succeeded in creating a work pad guitar.
Successfully amplified guitar today, but there was still a big problem. The attraction of the volume was certainly attractive, but there was a big problem with the first guitar. An acoustic guitar is designed to be very resonant. This design makes a bit of information to the guitar is amplified and was definitely detrimental to the music of the time. There must be a solution.
The solution came in the late 40's. Les Paul a jazz musician and inventor of the first plan, was convinced that a solid-body electric guitar is the answer to the problems of resonance. To prove that his idea was the solution, another piece of the history of the electric guitar was born. Paul created what he called "The Log", which was essentially a piece of pine wood two 4x4s. Viewers were less love the "Register" Paul is so close both halves of the body section of an acoustic guitar to look like a guitar. In 1946, Paul Gibson picked up his guitar again, but Gibson was enthusiastic about the idea of an electric guitar sound than the previous attempts to produce and market a solid body electric guitar had failed. At this point, Leo Fender stepped to the plate.
In 1949, Fender released a production version of the guitar called Esquire. Esquire magazine was renamed the Telecaster in time and one of the most emblematic of the history of electric guitar born. Over time it became popular among rock musicians. His "triple" sound it makes an excellent choice for the emerging rock and roll musical style and established the first Telecaster guitar rock and roll true.
The success of the Fender Telecaster to reassess the situation because Gibson. Gibson took a second look at the design of solid-body Les Paul in 1952 and decided to build a solid body guitar that would become the industry standard. Both Gibson and Fender continued to make history by creating the electric guitar some of the most emblematic of the industry. Fender Stratocaster Gibson introduced introduced throughout SG, Explorer and Flying V. Modern baby electric guitar.
