Pedal steel guitar.Electric lap steel guitars without sounding boards are considered to be solid-body instruments by some authorities, and not by others. This has a major effect on some claims of historical priority, as they predate the first models of solid-body electric guitar, which may otherwise be claimed to be the first commercially successful solid-body instruments. While noting this, it will be assumed that electric lap steels without sounding boards are solid-body instruments for the purposes of this article.HistoryEarly prototypesA solid-body electric violin was proposed by Thomas Edison[citation needed].Sketch of Rickenbacker "frying pan" lap steel guitar from 1934 patent applicationCommercial modelsThe first commercially successful solid-body instrument was the Rickenbacker frying pan lap steel guitar, produced from 1931 to 1939.The first commercially successful solid-body electric guitar was the Fender Telecaster (The early Telecaster models had no model name on the head stock and are now referred to as ‘No Casters") in 1950. It was followed by the Gibson Les Paul in 1952.Impact on musical stylesSolid-body instruments have particularly influenced heavy rock and surf music. Without solid-body guitars, neither of these genres could have developed as they did.[citation needed]Additional historySolid Body Electric GuitarsThe solid body electric guitar is one of the most well-known solid body instruments. Instrumental in rock, metal, blues, and country music, the electric guitar has been responsible for creating various sounds.There are some common characteristics of solid body electric guitars. They typically have six strings although there are some seven string and eight string models. Most have at least a tone and volume control. If they have more than one guitar pickup they have a switch that allows them to switch between the different pickups. There are various types of pickups that can be outfitted to a guitar. They can have single-coils, a P-90, or a humbucker. These pickups can be either passive or active (require batteries).Sometimes guitars are outfitted with pickguards which prevent the guitar from being scratched with a pick (a small device you use for strumming guitar).The early beginnings of the solid body electric guitar are confusing. Les Paul, a guitarist, invented the first solidbody, but Fender was the first to commercially market a solid body electric guitar. In the 1940s, Les Paul created a guitar called the og, which came rom the 4 by 4 solid block of pine which the guitarist had inserted between the sawed halves of the body that he just dismembered. He then carefully re-joined the neck to the pine log, using some metal brackets. He then put some pickups that he designed on it. He soon went to companies asking if they would buy his guitar. They turned him down. However, after the Fender Telecaster electric guitar became popular, the Gibson company contacted him and had him endorse a model named after him, The Les Paul guitar. It came out in 1952.Many companies today produced models based on the body shapes first started by Fender.Gibson created the Gibson Electric Bass to be introduced in the 1953. The scale, 30 was shorter than the Fender basses. Its body was designed to look like a violin. It had a single pickup. It also had an endpin which allowed the bass player to play it vertically. In 1959 Gibson created the EB-0 which was designed to compliment the Les Paul Junior. In 1961 it was redesigned to match the SG guitar and called the EB-3.Gibson also created the Thunderbird in 1963, which complimented the Firebird. It had the 34 scale for the neck. This was the same scale as the Fender basses.Other companies have created designs that are different from the Fender and Gibson models.Solid Body Electric MandolinsElectric Mandolins are similar to electric violins because they traditionally have one pickup. Some manufacturers produce electric violins because they also have a single pickup.Epiphone currently produces and electric mandolin called the Mandobird IV and VII. IV and VIII standing for four and eight strings respectively.They usually have a bolt on neck and a rosewood inlay. Both Mandobird models have a single coil pickup.Solid Body electric violinThe solid body violin is different from the traditional violin because it does not have a hollow body and has a iezo Pickup with Passive Volume and Tone Controls. These features allow it to be amplified. The body is made out of wood, usually maple. The fingerboard is made out of ebony. The top of the violin might be made out of flame maple or solid spruce. The body of the electric violin compared to an acoustic violin has cutaways that allow for weight reduction and a not as heavy body. This is also known as a cutawaySolid Body Electric SitarWhile a regular sitar has 21, 22, or 23 strings an Electric sitar is designed similar to a guitar. It first appeared in 1967 when innie Bell invented the Coral electric sitar, a small six-string guitar-like instrument producing a twangy sound that reminded people of its Indian namesake. It is played like a regular guitar. An electric sitar electronics consist of hree pickups with individual volume and tone controls are standard, including one pickup over the sympathetic strings. The bridge of the electric sitar is creates the sound of a sitar. Like electric guitars, made by Fender especially, the neck of a sitar is usually ade of bolt-on, hard maple wood with an optional mini-harp. The sitar also has 13 drone strings to located above the six strings that reach from the fretboard to the bridge.Solid Body Electric ViolaElectric Violas are designed similar to electric violins. They usually have the same features.Solid Body Electric CelloElectric Cellos are similar to regular cellos, but they have a smaller body. Some electric cellos have no body branching out from the middle where the strings are. Some electric cellos have the out line of the traditional body around middle creating the feel of a traditional cello. It is played like a traditional cello.The electric cello contains a volume control. Some have eq controls also. The fingerboard is made out of ebony. A piezo pickup is mounted at the bridge for amplification.The body can be made out of alder.
