Patent ID: 8278538

Claim:
A resonating guitar comprising a sound box configured to increase the resonation generated by the vibration of strings when placed on the guitar, the sound box comprising: an upper sound board having a generally flat configuration and positioned proximal a set of strings supported on the guitar, the upper sound plate having an opening therein defined by a rim; a lower sound board having a generally flat configuration and positioned generally parallel with the upper sound board to define a space between the upper and lower sound boards; a side board connecting the upper and lower sound boards in a manner so as to enclose a volume of air; the side board comprising at least one curvilinear panel; a resonator plate comprising a relatively sturdy material exhibiting a vibrational springy characteristic; the resonator plate supporting a bridge that is itself configured to support a set of guitar strings in a taut manner when positioned thereon, the bridge and resonator plate collectively configured to transmit the resonating vibrations of strings when strummed into the interior of the sound box, said resonator plate configured to rest on a shoulder within the rim of said opening of said upper sound board; and a resonator conductor positioned between the resonator plate and the lower sound board, the resonator conductor comprising a generally sturdy material for transmitting vibrations directly from the resonator plate to the lower sound board and to create additional air vibrations within the sound box.
