Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an instrument provided with an assembled soundboard. The nerve structures of the soundboard components are linked to the bass and middle registers on the one hand and the descant on the other hand and are positioned in a different angle with respect to the keyboard. The different positioning of the nerve structures contributes to an improved sound quality, a balanced volume and a warmer timbre. Moreover, such assembled soundboard offers a better resistance to changing weather conditions (i.e. cold and humidity).
