| meaning 2 | bridge (of musical imstrument) | Gli archi in sé producono un suono molto ridotto, perché le corde non riescono a vibrare in libertà, per farlo appunto si utilizza il ponte il quale è posizionato sul corpo dello strumento dalla parte opposta al manico. The strings themselves produce a very reduced sound, because the strings cannot vibrate freely, to do so using the bridge which is positioned on the body of the instrument on the opposite side of the neck. |
