Subject: Acoustic theory for construction of Violin Family Instruments
I am interested in finding sources of information related to
acoustic theory for the construction of stringed instruments.
More specifically, information on the acoustic theory behind
the construction of the violin family. I know that research
has been conducted on the subject and that there are a variety
of theories and myths. A friend mentioned that Scientific
American published something several years ago but I have been
unable to locate a copy of it. Please reply directly to me
and if anyone else is interested I will be glad to summarize.
If this is the wrong forum (i.e. List) then I apologize and would
gracefully accept being pointed in the right direction.
