Ah right cool, I'll try that so.

Hey Mumbai,

Would you know anything about the body resonances of the Sitar by any chance?

no clue.. usually the 'air tone' (helmholtz resonance) of stringed instruments is tuned to the lowest open string :) a mass-spring models them efficiently imo.
you come and go, you come and go. amitabha neither a follower nor a leader be tagore "where roads are made i lose my way" where there is certainty, consideration is absent.

I haven't seen you people address the neck/fingerboard at all. The way the fingerboard is curved gives a different response than say a guitar. The area between the frets are scalloped to give a wide bend. R This = a lot of variables. The bending of strings is a major part of playing one. The tone may change, dark to bright inside many bends (meends).
