ABSTRACT:
A pitch stabilized string suspension system which eliminates the detuning while playing by designing the string length between the string break point and the string attachment point as a function of the coefficient of friction and the deflection angle at the break point. Novel designs of the components of the string suspension system, the bridge, the saddle, the nut, and the tuning machine are also disclosed.
