FIELD: physics; acoustics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a tuner for tremolo mechanism of a stringed musical instrument. The tuner contains a lever on the body of the instrument with possibility of changing tension of a string for tremolo, where one arm of the lever is fitted with possibility of interaction with one end spring-loaded in the longitudinal direction of the axis. The axis spring is fitted with possibility of changing tension. The restrainer has cup-shaped cylinder, rigidly attached to the body of the instrument, in the seat of which, using a pre-stretched spring, goes into the pointed end of a ring clamp. An axis enters the ring clamp, with possibility of movement inside the ring clamp when the bolt of this clamp is loosened or immovable in the axial direction when the bolt of the ring clamp is tightened. The other end of the axis with a support cone, using a pre-compressed spring, holds the cone to the arm of the tremolo mechanism, which enables use of only two springs in the restrainer, which execute operation functions as well as adjustment functions.
EFFECT: long lasting tuning of a stringed musical instrument.
