Acoustic guitar qualities The acoustic guitar has eight basic qualities volume, balance, dynamic range, cutting power, tone, presence, sustain, and separation. Some guitars have a higher volume compared to others but it does not mean that these guitars produce better sound output. There are many other qualities to consider. At the right, it has short treble strings while at the left are long bass strings. It is longer than the modern piano and has a sharper curve. Structure The harpsichord has 6 main parts harpsichord interior, lid stick, music desk, casing, keyboard, and lid. The harpsichord s interior contains the strings that are amplified to produce sound. Parts The many parts of the sitar are the kuntis or tuning pegs, drone strings, tumba or gourd, baj tar or playing string, tarafdar or sympathetic strings, dandi or neck, parda or frets, gulu or cowl, ghoraj or bridge, tuning beads, tabkandi or face plate, and kaddu or resonator. Playing the sitar The instrument should be placed between the player s right knee and left foot with the left leg under the former. Adjusting the mouth s position and controlling how much wind goes through the bugle produces the tones. It is the foundation for various other wind instruments and is groundwork for learning mouth control for playing instruments other than the bugle. Unfortunately, it can only play notes in the harmonic series. A few claim that it is the same as the superoctave but some object. The origins of the name of the octavin are not certain though there are some presumptions. As stated by Grove, octavin is listed as a synonym of ottavina by Venetian builders which date back from 1790. What does it look like? The odd shape of the octavin singles it out from the others. The comb is the body of the orchestra. It includes the air chambers where the reeds are found. The comb material is said to have a slight influence on the harp s tone but the main lead of the comb material is durability. Traditional harmonicas were made of wood while modern versions of the instrument are made of plastic or metal.
