The craft is geometry

Strings, air, and wood share the same standing-wave physics as a cathedral — scaled to a hand-held nave.

String modes

Nodes at nut & bridge. Harmonics stack like floors of vibration.

A0

Air cavity

Helmholtz “boom” through the soundhole — the body’s lowest room mode.

Plate nodes

Top & back flex in nodal patterns (Chladni geometry) that color every note.

Δ

Setup

Relief → action → intonation so the geometry can ring clean — $25–$30 fair work.

Bench tool for Chris: frequency analyzer separates musical modes from 60 Hz electrical hum.
