Popis: This paper describes a technique to estimate the plucking point and magnetic pickup location along the strings of an electric guitar from a recording of an isolated guitar tone. The estimated values are calculated by minimising the difference between the magnitude spectrum of the recorded tone and that of an electric guitar model based on an ideal string. The recorded tones that are used for the experiment consist of a direct input electric guitar played on all six open strings and played moderately loud (mezzo-forte). The technique is able to estimate pickup locations with 7.75–9.44 mm average absolute error and plucking points with 10.45–10.97 mm average absolute error for single and mixed pickups.
