Hello List and Thump - his Theorem #2
Here comes Gamble's Theory #1
So there's all these grooves cut by the strings in yer hammer heads. Wow!
Think of the damping of the higher partials that goes on before the hammer
finally gets away from the strings....
"Makes sense to me. The increased hammer weight
increases the hammer's inertia, making it slower to
rebound from the string. During that millisecond of
increased string contact, the smaller segment
vibrations imparted to the string, which create the
higher harmonic partials, are somewhat damped by the
effect of the pressing hammer felt.
