Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1020842A2] Bamboo fibers uniformly extend in the longitudinal direction of a bamboo stem (20) so as to impart good acoustic properties to bamboo plates (25) formed from bamboo strips (24), and the bamboo plates (25) are available for a component part (1a/ 1b/ 1c/ 11/ 12) of a body and a neck (2a/ 2b) both forming part of an acoustic guitar, because the bamboo is easily economically obtainable. <IMAGE>
