After the development of the times, these kinds of electric guitars multiply, yes, like the electric guitar in 1932, named the "Rickenbacker" electric guitar in 1933, named the "Dobro", in 1934 to grow many kinds of electric guitars like "National, Audio Vox and volu-Ton ", and the electric guitar in 1936, named the" Vega, Epiphone, and Gibson ", having produced guitars in 1936, many other types emerged.

Tuning and Bass History

Tuning and Bass History 

Electric bass guitar is a stringed instrument that uses electricity to enlarge his voice. Its appearance is similar to an electric guitar but it has a larger body, a longer neck, and usually have four strings, while the electric guitar has six strings. 

And bass guitar weigh more heavily than usual electric guitar, this is because the strings are thicker (to preserve modesty tone / sound), causing the wood to choose a more solid and hard to balance takanan the "neck" (guitar neck), but it fret size (columns on guitar) greater adjusted to the thickness of the strings. 

There are many types of bass used to date. The most widely used form Ciello contra bass and bass (commonly used for opera performances), electric bass (commonly used for all types of performances, especially the band) and "fretless" bass with electric bass but no fret (column / constraint on board press / neck) on the bass. The working principle is similar to the contra fretless bass / bass Ciello just shaped electric guitar.

Tuning above sorted by number strings (strings 1, strings 2, and so on), where 1 is the string bottom strings of a bass guitar (the thinnest string). 

Bass player chose to use five-string bass with six strings or more due to the breadth of range of tones that can dimainkannya.Biasanya six stringed bass is widely used by jazz bass player, and a homage to rock-even some that use it, because more breadth of range tone can be played.

What is a Drum and its Parts?

What is a Drum and its parts?

Drum actual manifold. There is a snare, tom-tom, bass, conga, tymbal, mondo, drum, tabla ... etc, they are essentially the drum, as played by means beaten. But we are considering is a drumset, is arguably the most modern form of drums. Drumset itself actually consists of three drums, the snare, tom-toms and bass drums. For tom-toms still be divided into two more, namely: Mounted tom and floor tom-tom (depending on the diameter of the laying and only). Of the three elements there are still some important elements, namely cymbals, hardware (pedals, hihat stand, cymbal stand, snare stand, tom holder / tom stand) and the drumhead. 

Tom-tom consisted of various sizes both in depth and diameter. Size of a drum written bias 12 × 10, which means that the depth is 12 inches and 10 inches in diameter. Tom-tom diameter varies, tom-toms usually the smallest diameter of 6 ", and continues to 8", 10 ", 12", 13 ", 14", 15 ", 16", 18 "and 20". Tom-tom sizes 14 "and above can be classified as a floor tom-tom, but depending on placement as well. Tom-tom used 2 drumhead, top and bottom, except in the 70's where the tom and bass drum drumhead only use 1 only, and the ugly voice. Agency tom-tom or commonly referred to as a shell made of wood. To drum beginner classes usually use Mahogany wood and is usually used for professional grade wood Birch and Maple. Birch and Maple wood is more expensive because it produces a sound or a round and clear tone. Wood on the tom-toms typically have thicknesses from 4 to 10 mm. The thinner the wood the resulting sound richer and sensitive. While the thick wood the resulting sound louder, but the sound was not too rich and less sensitive. 

Bass drum is not too different from the tom-tom, bass drum only has a larger diameter, 16 ", 18", 20 ", 22", 24 "and even 26" or more. And bass drum beaten with pedal and put under. But it does not sound like a bass drum tom-tom-voiced "Dung ..." but it tends to sound "Dug ..." (more dead voice). Wood bass drum tends to be thicker to produce a louder voice, and for resistance drum itself. 

Snare drum is a drum the most different among the other (from the form and voice). And the snare drum is a key element of the drumset (most often beaten). This drum is usually measuring 10 "to 15", but the most commonly used is the size of 14 ". That makes a difference on the snare drum on the bottom of the drum. Beneath use wires or the actual spiral called Snare Wire / Strainer. Objects that make a difference to the snare drum. If you hit it head under the snare wire immediately responded, by way of 'hitting' head back down and result in a sharp voice. Therefore, the actual 'life' of the snare drum snare lies in wirenya. If wirenya removed the snare sound generated is almost equal to the tom-tom. 

Cymbals, yet another 'life' to the drumset, because it is almost impossible to play the drums without cymbals (supposing like eating rice without the rice, do not eat donk ...). Cymbals consist of 4 types they are: 

1. Hihat cymbal:'Heart' of cymbals and drums. Useful for keeping time / tempo. consists of a pair of cymbals. size 8 "to 15". Standard size 14 " 

2. Ride cymbal:Same function as hihat but with different shapes and sounds. Consists of only one cymbal but large 18 "to 22". standard size 20 " 

3. Crash cymbal:Useful to give a phrase / tone on a track. Measuring 13 "to 22" depending on the tastes of the player. 

4. Effects cymbals:Effects consist Splash cymbal, bell, china and swiss. Useful to give a 'color' special on the track. Splash and bell usually measuring 6 "to 12" and to china and swiss usually measuring 16 "to 22". 

Hardware consists of various forms and functions: 

1. Pedal:Useful for hitting the bass drum, also available double pedal, the pedal that uses 2 pedals and 2 beater or a beater to get a better sound on the bass drum. 

2. Hihat stand:To put hihat cymbals consisting of 2 pieces of cymbals so you can open and close his cymbals with your left leg. 

3. Cymbal stand:To put all kinds except hihat cymbal. 

4. Snare stand:To put the snare drum, and you can change her position as you like. 

5. Tom holder / tom stand:Useful to install tom-tom. 

Drumhead has the size, type, function and different thicknesses. Drumhead consists of 3 parts: First Batter head, drumhead is designed specifically to hit. Second, Resonant just placed on the bottom of the tom-toms and the front of the bass drum. Head is not to hit, head is useful to give 'live' on the tom-toms and bass drums. And the last is the snare side, as required to be placed at the bottom of the snare to get a snare sound wirenya. Snare side head is the thinnest. Remember, not to hit.
