ABSTRACT:
The invention described herein is a attachment mechanism for attaching a string to a musical instrument. The mechanism is composed of two quick attachment cylinders. One cylinder fits matedly within the other cylinder. The first cylinder contains an outer diameter which has a frictional means to engage the bridge of the guitar. It also has a hollow center portion to matedly accept the second cylinder, as well as, of course, the guitar string. The second cylinder similarly has a hollow cylindrical center which accepts the guitar string. The second cylinder also has an external dimension so that it fits easily within the first hollow central portion of the first cylinder. The second cylinder contains a detent, such as a knob or notch, which locks on the first cylinder. An alternate, one piece form is also described.
