"Mensul-fmr Zupf-und Schlaginstrumente.
Das Griffbrett der Zupf- und Schlagin, trumente, wie Mandoline, Laute, Zither usw. besteht derzeit aus einem langen schmalen Ebenholzbrett, in dem der Breite nach in Intervallen von halben Tönen die Metallstege oder Bünde eingesetzt sind. Das Einsetzen der Bünde erfordert nun grösste Genauigkeit, da der kleinste Fehler oder Ungenauigkeit schwere Mängel in der Intonation nach sich bringt.
Demzufolge ist daher die Herstellung des Griffbrettes äusserst kostspielig. Um diesem Nachteile zu begegnen, wird gemäss vorliegender Erfindung an Stelle des Griffbrettes mit den eingesetzten Bünden eine aus einem schmalen Blechstreifen bestehende Mensur verwendet, bei der die Bünde aus dem Blechstreifen in Intervallen von halben Tönen herausgepresst sind.
Eine derartige Blechmensur zeigen die Fig. 1--3 der Zeichnung. Die Blechmensur zeichnet sich durch rasche und genaue Herstellungsweise aus, da dieselbe maschinell hergestellt wfrden kann, und ist

"Mensul-fmr plucked and percussion instruments.
The fingerboard of plucked and percussive instruments, such as mandolin, lute, zither, etc. currently consists of a long, narrow ebony board in which the metal bars or frets are inserted at intervals of half tones. The insertion of the frets now requires the greatest possible accuracy, since the smallest mistake or inaccuracy results in serious deficiencies in the intonation.
As a result, the fingerboard is extremely expensive to manufacture. In order to counteract these disadvantages, according to the present invention, instead of the fingerboard with the frets used, a length consisting of a narrow sheet metal strip is used, in which the frets are pressed out of the sheet metal strip at intervals of half tones.
Such a sheet metal gauge is shown in Figs. 1--3 of the drawing. The sheet metal censorship is characterized by a quick and precise production method, since it can and is made by machine
