Electronic stringed instrument

An electronic stringed instrument comprising:

• a body of the instrument;
• a plurality of strings which are strung over the body of the instrument and have electric conductivity;
• a bridge body in which a plurality of string attaching holes are provided such that one end portion of each of the plurality of strings is inserted and attached to a respective one of the plurality of string attaching holes;
• a plurality of bridge saddles having insulation properties, the bridge saddles being respectively arranged in accordance with the plurality of strings on the bridge body, and each of the bridge saddles supporting a respective one of the plurality of strings;
• a plurality of insulation tubes which are respectively inserted into the plurality of string attaching holes of the bridge body, wherein the one end portion of each of the plurality of strings is inserted into an interior of a respective one of the plurality of insulation tubes;
• a plurality of electrically conductive sections each of which is (i) provided in an interior of a respective one of the plurality of insulation tubes and (ii) conducted to a respective one of the plurality of strings;
• a plurality of connection cables which are respectively connected to the plurality of electrically conductive sections;
• and
• a pitch determination section which is provided in the body of the instrument, supplies an electric signal for each of the plurality of strings connected to the plurality of connection cables, and determines a pitch of musical sound to be generated by detecting to which of a plurality of frets having electric conductivity the plurality of strings have been respectively conducted by being pressed thereagainst.
