PTG > Santa Clara, California > cmpiano@attbi.com The point of this experiment is to show that Longitudinal waves can be introduced to the bridge and doing so will result in sound eminating from the soundboard. Or you can take it the other way and pump it across town into a zither if you want I suppose. None of this tho goes to show anything at all about the kind of waves generated in either soundboard or bridge. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
