ADJUSTABLE MICROTONALGUITARS, NECKS, FRETBOARDS
Welcome to our online store for adjustable microtonal guitars, fretboards, and necks. Explore a world of unique musical possibilities with our innovative instruments.
INSPIRATION
In designing Adjustable Microtonal Guitar, Tolgahan ÇoÄŸulu was inspired by René Lacote's and Walter Vogt's guitars. On the Adjustable Microtonal Guitar's fretboard, all the frets are movable in the channels under each string. Besides, any number of frets can be inserted into or removed from the fretboard.
IMPLEMENTATION
Adjustable Microtonal Guitar was designed by Tolgahan ÇoÄŸulu in 2008. It was accepted and funded as a scientific research project at Istanbul Technical University Dr. Erol Uçer Center for Advanced Studies in Music under the supervision of Prof. Åžehvar BeÅŸiroÄŸlu.
DEVELOPMENT
In 2021 Prof. Tolgahan ÇoÄŸulu and Süleyman Hakan Görener designed and developed the Adjustable Microtonal Guitar Version 2 and founded the company Microtonal Guitar Music Technologies. The company produces adjustable microtonal fretboards and necks for classical, acoustic, electric, bass guitars, ukuleles, bouzoukis, baglamas and various custom instruments and continues to innovate.
REPLACE FRETBOARD
Convert your current instrument to an adjustable microtonal instrument by replacing the fretboard. You will need a luthier.
BUILD FROM SCRATCH
A luthier can build a new instrument from scratch with our fretboard. We can forward you to the luthiers here in Turkey.
CHOOSE INSTRUMENTS FROM TURKEY
You can choose the type-model-brand of the instrument you want from the online stores in Turkey. Then we can purchase the instrument for you and replace the fretboard by our contracted luthiers, and deliver it to you. Please contact us via email info@microtonalguitar.org for the details.
