<p>The pivoted bridge and string securing assembly (26) of a stringed guitar is operated to produce a vibrato sound by means of a handle (96) that is both detachable and rotatably adjustable. A hollow bolt (66) is rotatably mounted to a bridging plate (30) of the bridge assembly and provided with a controllably adjustable frictional restraint (80) against rotation. The vibrato handle has a mounting leg (100) received within the bore of the hollow bolt, is keyed (78, 102) to the bolt for frictionally restrained rotation therewith, and is detachably latched to the bolt by a latching spring (106). </p> |
