2132331 9319456 PCTABS00026 The piezoelectric transducer saddle (11) of the present invention is a thin, generally rectangular member that is designed to fit into a bridge slot (13) of a musical instrument such as a guitar (14). The piezoelectric element is oriented vertically in the saddle and constitutes a structural member of the saddle. A first embodiment of the saddle (11) comprises a piezoelectric element (22) that forms the saddle itself. Electrical contacts (42, 44) are engaged to the side of the piezoelectric element to produce electrical output. A preferred embodiment of the saddle (110) is a laminated structure wherein the laminated layers (118) are disposed vertically, and a vertical layer (122) composed of a piezoelectric material is generally centrally disposed within the laminated structure. A metallic electrical contact (120, 130) is engaged on each side of the piezoelectric material to receive electrical signals generated by the piezoelectric material.
