DescriptionRickenback Frying Pan aluminum-cast guitar (1934).jpg |
Advances in technology often inspire innovations in musical instruments. The harnessing of electrical energy in the late 1800s and early 1900s coupled with the need for the guitar to have a louder presence in the increasingly large bands and venues, ultimately led to the development of the electric guitar. After much experimentation by designers and engineers, an electric guitar referred to as the "Frying Pan" appeared on the market in 1932. So called because of its appearance, the "Frying Pan" was a lap steel (used in Hawaiian music so popular at the time) manufactured by the Ro-Pat-In company, known today as Rickenbacker. |
