Schertler Guitars And Their Components

By Judy Sullivan


Stefan Schertler is a great producer of transducers and pickups for acoustic equipment. He is from Switzerland and he began his job in the early 80s. Since his first invention, it is over thirty years of ongoing development and research. Acoustic amplification instruments manufactured by this gentleman are becoming a point of reference in the world of music. New acoustic from this guy could be ordered from famous brands such as Santa Cruz, Martin, and Gibson. The acoustics contain bluestick pickups from Schertler loaded onboard.

Guitars made by this producer are professional and designed for use by people of varying skill levels. The products are made to look as appealing as the sound they make. The sides, neck, and top are made in a unique way to make them outstanding. The 2007 business association with the Italian Claudio Pagelli has boosted the guitars further.

Tops are made from Swiss alpine spruce moon wood. Moonwoods are defined by most encyclopedias as woods that in the view of tradition exhibit unique and outstanding attributes. The unique attributes are result from felling at specific moon phases. Certain moon-related felling beliefs have been passed on through numerous generations and have confirmed to be useful in given timber industries.

Schertler guitars have their headstocks reinforced with pieces of ebony wood that are three millimeter in thickness. The reinforcements are meant to produce best tones and to form elegant optical effects that elongated finger-boards generate. Headstocks are also light-weight and add to overall balance of the necks and reveal the original Schertler device-heads. Knobs are produced from ebony timber and are of best quality with timeless modishness.

The bridge is constructed from ebony to guarantee an elegant flat surface. A flat surface is important for uniform response from the electrostatic Bluestick under-saddle pickups. The under-saddle is shaped into bone and is precisely fixed to give strings an angle of twelve degrees. The precise placement of under-saddles facilitates the transmission of string vibrations with efficiency. It also gives better compensation in tuning when string action is reduced or raised.

The satin mahogany made neck has ebony fingerboard that has a flat profile to enable players of the instrument to even enjoy it more. Steel-string models have a truss rod that allows adjustments in either direction to get a good shape on the neck in any position. The resistance of the neck in classical brands is improved by a glass fiber rod. The nuts are made from bone.

The bindings are made from fine rosewoods, contrasted by nice binding lines in maple. These guitars are made in a wide range of makes. There exists those that generate alto, tenor, soprano, bass, and a blend of all the sounds. Leather straps that appear with them render them simple to lift around when in use. The sizes, colors shapes also differ, leaving someone with a wide variety to pick from.

Schertler guitars and acoustic instruments can be purchased from a number of dealers worldwide. They are not as expensive as one may think, though performance is guaranteed. For an exclusive musical moment, these devices are the real deal.
