To provide a stringed instrument capable of securing stability of sound without any decrease in playing property while improving portability and carrying properties in order to solve the problem that a conventional stringed instrument is physically large and therefore has portability and carrying properties spoiled, and the problem that mere reduction in physical size for improvement in portability and carrying property results in a decrease in playing property and instability of sound.SOLUTION: A stringed instrument according to the present invention secures all of portability, carrying properties, playing properties, and stability of sound by devising the size and structure thereof while decreasing the number of strings that the stringed instrument has to not many, but one. In addition, problems associated with playing properties and durability are solved by devising shapes and positions of respective parts of a stringed instrument body so as to prevent playing properties from being spoiled even when the size is reduced.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】従来の弦楽器は物理的に大きく、その結果として携帯性・搬送性が損なわれるという問題があった。携帯性・搬送性を改善しようとして単に物理的サイズを小さくすれば演奏性の低下や音の不安定化をもたらすという問題があった。携帯性・搬送性を向上しながらも演奏性が低下せず音の安定性も確保できる弦楽器を提供することが本発明の課題である。【解決手段】本発明の弦楽器は、それが有する弦の数を複数本ではなく１本のみに留めると同時に、そのサイズと構造を工夫することにより、携帯性・搬送性、演奏性、音の安定性のいずれをも確保できるようにする。同時に、小型化しても演奏性が損なわれないようにするために、弦楽器本体の各部の形状と位置にも工夫を施すことで演奏性や耐久性の問題を解決する。【選択図】図１
