I received a message from one of the guys who operates the Gitec forum saying they have a new English version of the site www.gitec-forum-eng.de/They've also translated more chapters of "Physics of the Electric Guitar" to English www.gitec-forum-eng.de/the-book/ . I'm told chapters 4, 5, 9, 10 and 11 are completed, with chapter 7 being nearly ready. A few of these chapters are available as one large PDF, but the others appear to be broken up by sub chapter. Chapter 4 The electromagnetic field (translated by Wolfgang Hönlein, proofread by Andrew Graham) poteg-4-magnetics lots of information about magnetism and particular types of magnets. gitec-forum.de/wp/wp-content/uploads/poteg-4-magnetics.pdf Chapter 5 Magnetic pickups (translated by Tilmann Zwicker), extensive information about various pickup designs. Chapter 6 Piezoelectric pickups (translated by Tilmann Zwicker) www.gitec-forum-eng.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/poteg-6-piezo-pickups.pdfChapter 9 Guitar Circuits (translated by Tilmann Zwicker), deals with guitar wiring, pots, caps, etc. Chapter 10 Guitar Amplifiers (translated by Tilmann Zwicker) extensive information on guitar amps, with some comparisons of well known models. Chapter 11 Guitar loudspeakers (translated by Tilmann Zwicker) discusses both speakers and cabinets. www.gitec-forum-eng.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/poteg-11-loudspeakers.pdfChapter 7, when available, will cover guitar structural physics, including the body, neck and strings. Chapter 8 is supposed to be coming along soon, too.
