The back and sides are the part where the guitar bounces sound.Conventional wisdom holds that because each wood has unique sound characteristics, different wood species have different physical properties that can affect how they match the vibrational shape of the top when these woods are used as the back and sides of a guitar. Different timbres are produced, so mahogany, rosewood and other materials are generally used. This has led to modern guitars under the premise that the panel wood and other conditions remain unchanged. The price difference, or even the price gap of several times.However, when Xiao Xiao was studying guitar at university, he carefully read guitar-related classics. He found that as early as 1862, the Spanish luthier Torres, the originator of the modern guitar, proposed that the purpose of the back and side panels of the guitar was to keep the distance between the soundboards. separate from each other and has nothing to do with sound.Later, when she was concentrating on studying physics, Xiao Xiao had to say that it is possible for guitars to have different timbres due to different physical properties of wood species in the traditional concept, but such differences cannot be discerned by the human ear. It is determined by the physiological characteristics of the human ear.So Xiao Xiao didn't plan to ask the pillar to find some rosewood, but chose some cheap and easy-to-obtain wood such as maple, anyway, this one was only used to deal with that weird person.

The neck refers to a section of semicircular wooden stick connected to the fingerboard between the headstock and the body, because this part has a great influence on the performance of the violin and is directly related to whether the player feels comfortable holding the violin with his left hand. So Xiao Xiao planned to use mahogany.All plant life has an inborn disposition, that is, a tendency to grow towards the sunlight, and to chase it across the sky.Sunflowers are an example, as are trees - although their ability to move is less obvious.Trees always want to keep the parts that get the morning sun facing the sun all day, so they twist their trunks all day, trying to follow the sun.The degree of distortion will depend on the type and location of the tree, the intensity of sunlight passing through the canopy of adjacent trees, and wind, among other factors.But as a result, over the years, the trunk becomes distorted, which can sometimes be seen through the bark.Tropical hardwoods gain an interesting advantage due to this phenomenon.When the sun crosses the equator line seasonally and produces summer in one hemisphere while producing tropical winter in the other, they get a "solar rotation effect" in alternating directions.Thus, equatorial hardwoods grow at some times like trees in the northern hemisphere and at other times like trees in the southern hemisphere.Therefore, the wood grain inside the wood is staggered: years like this, years like this.This property gives mahogany great stability.This interlocking wood grain is natural to plywood.As far as instrument building is concerned, this is one of the reasons why mahogany is particularly suitable for necks.The shape of the neck is mostly semi-ellipse or slightly triangular semi-circle.The production size requires precision, but it can also be slightly adjusted according to the needs of users.However, some dimensions such as the length of the neck and the production of the button at the bottom of the neck must be absolutely accurate, because the former is related to the effective string length, while the latter has a great influence on the intonation of the player when changing handles and high positions.

The fretboard is a piece of hardwood on the edge of the handle from the nut to the soundhole, inlaid with markings for the frets and harmonic frets.There are three requirements for a good fingerboard: First, wear resistance is required. From the perspective of wood, the harder the wood is, the more wear-resistant it is; the second is that it is not easy to deform. Affect the feel; the third is the feel, it feels a bit oily to the touch, and smooth wood is very suitable for fingerboards.In addition, the fingerboard also participates in the overall resonance of the guitar, so the material can also affect the sound of the guitar.Good fingerboard materials commonly used in modern times include rosewood, and ebony is the top-grade one. However, rosewood is a tree native to tropical South America. Xiao Xiao really has no confidence that it can be found in Baiyu Kingdom in this era, so Xiao Xiao plans to spend it extravagantly. One with ebony.

"What about the strings?"

There are three types of guitars, folk guitar, classical guitar and electric guitar.The reason why Xiao Xiao chose to make classical guitars instead of the other two is the material of the strings. Folk guitars and electric guitars mostly use steel strings, and only classical guitars are more receptive to gut strings.

Guitar strings are mainly divided into three types, gut strings, nylon strings and steel strings.

In the late nineteenth century, people began to use metal wire to make strings and use them on other strings of stringed instruments.With steel wire as the core, nickel, lead, silver, or even titanium metal and other thin wires are wound on the outside. Such metal strings have become another category besides gut strings.Because they are durable, fast in response, and not affected by air humidity, they almost completely replaced gut strings when they first appeared.But people soon found that their timbres were loud and lacking in layers, and the harsh cold metal sound lacked human warmth. For real musicians and high-quality music appreciators, steel strings are not their choice.

At this time, nylon strings came into being.It combines the strengths of gut strings and steel wire strings, not only has the beautiful tone close to gut strings, but also has the volume and stability of steel wire strings.Although its string core is also affected by weather humidity and temperature like gut strings, the range of change is much smaller than that of sheep gut strings.Later, since Thomastik-Infeld launched the Dominant strings in the 1970s, nylon strings with nylon wires as the core and metal filaments wrapped around them have dominated the market for stringed instruments, especially violin strings, for decades.

Gut strings are the strings that Xiao Xiao intends to make.These are the earliest strings used by humans, made of sheep intestines or tendons, and until the [-]th century, sheep gut strings were the only choice for violin instruments.Gut strings are characterized by soft tension, rich connotations and overtones in tone, and warm and multi-layered colors that are very close to human voice.However, its shortcomings are also very obvious. First, the response is slow, so the method of bowing requires an adaptation process; Small changes in temperature and humidity will immediately affect its intonation.But for Xiao Xiao, this is the only string that can be made in Baiyu Country, which has not yet entered the industrial revolution.

"It's roughly like this. As for the thickness of the panel and the thickness of the strings, I have written them aside. You can read this when you are doing it." Xiao Xiao drank a cup of tea in one go to relieve her dry mouth. If you don’t understand, just come to me directly, this thing is very important, so you can’t make mistakes.”

Zhu Zi nodded, expressing that he would fulfill his mission.

"How long will that take?"

Zhu Zi thought for a while: "At least half a month."

Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he could still afford to wait this time.He handed a bag of silver to Zhu Zi: "You take the money and use it first, and tell me if you don't have enough money, and I will give it later."

Zhu Zi weighed it and said with a smile: "Enough."

Xiao Xiao instructed Zhu Zi a few more words and left.Looking at the sunset in the sky, Xiao Xiao, who originally planned to go to the dessert house, went straight back to her yard, and then called Liu Kaize who was sitting on the roof drinking.

"Xie Lao, why do you always sit on the roof?" Xiao Xiao frowned and looked at Liu Kaize who was drunk before nightfall, "And I said before that you can drink up to [-]ml a day, do you have something on your mind?"

"Where is it?" Liu Kaize smiled and held the wine bottle and wanted to drink it, but Xiao Xiao snatched it away.

"No drinking! Have you forgotten how you promised my master?"

"Old man Zhao..." Liu Kaize suddenly burst into tears, "Today is the anniversary of the anniversary..."

Xiao Xiao's hand holding the wine bottle stopped suddenly, feeling complicated and indistinguishable in her heart.

It was her.

"I'm sorry for her!" Liu Kaize hugged Xiao Xiao and cried bitterly, "I can't even go to worship her this year..."

"It's me who should say I'm sorry." Xiao Xiao sighed and returned the bottle to him.Xiao Xiao is not a fool, he knows the reason why Liu Kaize didn't go to worship the New Year's Eve now, it's just to protect himself.The tranquility of these days made him almost forget that there are still people secretly wanting his own life, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but think of Hongmei—why didn't he do anything?

"If only I could see you sooner..."

Liu Kaize cried and gradually fell asleep, Xiao Xiao carried him back to his bedroom, then looked at the book that suddenly appeared and asked, "Do Hongmei and the others have any clues?"

Shu also shook his head: "There is no news yet."

strangeness.Xiao Xiao bit her nails and counted how many days had passed since she rescued Hongmei that day. She felt uneasy in her heart, always feeling that something was going to happen.The pursuit was so urgent before, why is there no news at all now?Could it be that there are other things and you are stuck?

"The master said to let the teacher go to class with peace of mind first, and we will take care of the rest."

After finishing the book, she disappeared into the night, Xiao Xiao couldn't understand it and could only go to sleep, after all, she had to get up early for class tomorrow.

The next day was a sunny day.Xiao Xiao entered the school as usual, and for some reason there were many strange supervisors in the corridor between the desks, and they were all excited when they saw him.

"He is our Teacher Xiao!" a supervisor below said proudly to those people.

Those people became even more excited, and finally one of them stood up and respectfully said to Xiao Xiao who was baffled by the extra people: "Assistant Xiao, we are all supervisors of calligraphy, if we want to attend the teacher's class, is it allowed? "

"As long as it doesn't disturb the order of the classroom." Xiao Xiao said indifferently, after all, a sheep is herding, and a flock of sheep is also shedding.

"Today we are talking about how to measure the volume of an object," Xiao Xiao took out a charcoal pencil and wrote on the white paper pasted on the wall, "We have learned the area before, so is there any supervising student who can tell us about triangles and quadrilaterals?" How to calculate the area..."
