    • @jjankosky
      @jjankosky 5 років тому +11

      @Kenny H That's density. You can match the mass by weight. 1k of lead has the same mass as 1k of aluminum. They will take up different volume, but the mass is the same.

      This was cool, but I agree that each strip of wood should have been milled down to the same size and length for a proper comparison of their tone. As I was watching this I kept thinking over and over again how the size and length will dramatically affect their tone, so I found this video very disconcerting that the test was not fair to the main point of this video.

If you notice the different sizes in these exotic and super-exotic species, you'd have to agree that it would be a travesty to cut these fine woods to a smaller but matching dimension. Some pieces we've had for over 30 years! Thanks for your input.

    The support points of the pieces of wood are in widely different places relative to their lengths. The shorter bits of wood are particularly wrong. You can't get a proper tone unless the support points are in exactly the right place - that's how xylophones work.

    This is all about acoustic science right. We already know, the pitch produced depends on the mass of the object. The higher the mass, the low the pitch will be. The smaller the mass, the higher the pitch. I do believe that each wood produce different tones but this experiment will be more accurate if all the woods are cut with the same mass/size.

    I totally understand the tone differences in the woods used in this example. It makes total sense, since different types of wood have entirely different elements to them. Density, hardness, resins or saps, air pockets, grain structures. Therefore, in the case of using the woods as a musical instrument and tapping on the types of wood generating many of differences in tones and pitches. That sounded awesome and was a great example of tonewood.
    I have played guitar off and on since I was 16YO. I"m now 44YO. Electronic has been a big hobby of mine for many of those years. I like to think I have a nice electronics lab setup. I would also like to believe I have a good understanding of how electric guitars work.
    I was recently in the market for a new ax, I've not shopped for a guitar in many years. While checking out some reviews, I have noticed a huge amount of myths and bad information being transferred through the internet. That's one negative of the internet. Not only good info but bad info is transferred as well. I'm not amazed at what people believe as I am totally amazed at what people want to believe. There so much info on YT and forums on this subject I even started to believe what I know made no sense logically or scientifically.
    Therefore, scientifically speaking I have done some recent test in a controlled involvement. After hearing all this hype about tonewood on the internet. I took my old guitars and borrowed a couple of my friends Gib-Les Pauls and one Sechter, and I conducted a plethora of tests. I conducted these test using my Lab equipment, to list a few pieces of gear used. An Oscilloscope's and Spectrum Analyser, Signal Processors Etc.
    How electrical guitar and pickups work!
    Guitar Picks, i.e., Sound Transducers "use electrical energy to create mechanical vibration to discharge the surrounding air producing sound whether an audible or inaudible frequency."
    Electric guitar pickups work by employing "principles of magnetic induction." The pickups are composed of small electromagnets (magnets that are wrapped with a coil of wire, thus allowing an electric current to flow through them
    I can't find any real evidence showing scientifically that the wood of a fretboard makes a difference in the tone of an electric guitar. Unless you are tapping on the fretboard as you did here in this Video. Even the body wood type does not make a tone difference when using the same hardware bridge, nut, pickups Etc & scale length. Unless you mounted the pickups to witch the string vibration frequency would have to travel through the wood then get transmitted into the pickups.
    A guitar is played by (fretting) the string at any given fret position then plucking the string. The string is in contact with to parts of the guitar at any given time. Either the nut and bridge or any given fret and bridge. The vibration from the string frequency running thru the fret into the fretboard is not going to make any difference at all. First of the pickups is mount right under the strings. The signal from the stings in causing the pickup's signal to change almost instantly. The pickups are also designed to be influenced by the magnetic field a set of metal strings that are being used as a signal generator. This is why the strings have to be close to the magnetic field generated by the pickups. The frequency generated by the vibrating metal string influenced speed from the vibration of the metal string to pickup is at a very high rate of speed, so quick that any signal is traveling at a different rate of speed. Like moving thru the wood, would not have time to affect the pickup anyway.
    Any signal moving through and or from wood would not even have an effect on the pickup signal wave, as it would lose its ability to affect the magnetic field generated by the pickups. The pickup could still tranduce a minimal amount of the signal, not enough to change the high wave frequency coming directly from the string 3/32nd away from original trucks. The influenced by any signal traveling through wood as it is not magnetic energy, would not affect the pickups at all as it would have to be powerful enough to influence the strong signal coming straight from the string. This is basic science. +
    I wonder were all this Tonewood argument originated. I"m only guessing here, I'm pretty sure this started with people trying to convince themselves that the 3000.00 dollars they just spent on a guitar were really worth it. Then they had to convince the people in their circle as well. This stemmed from buyers remorse. Then turn into the reason why other can talk themselves into paying over 1500.00 for a guitar. Then they have to convince there hears that there buddies 400.00 dollar guitar does not sound as good as there 3000.00 dollar guitar.
    I can't find any evidence that the body of the guitar makes a difference either, using the same testing procedures. If it does its like 0.03% and can't be registered with high tech gear. Of course, I'm not including Acoustical instruments into this, Acoustic is used the surrounding body of wood to generate differenced. I still think shape make more of a difference in acoustic then wood type as long as your not going from extremely soft wood to extremely hard to wood.

      Why did you suddenly decide to build your evidence on the readings of the oscilloscope? what proves that the oscilloscope should fix the difference in timbre? you're using the wrong type of evidence. And therefore your conclusions are wrong

      I don't understand, do you approve that between the guitars for 400$ and 1500$ there is no difference? And between 1500$ and 3000$. For me this question doesn't worth it, because the difference in most tests is clear

      How you name it "Tonewood" is not a theory. It is axiom for those who has claccical music education. Because all (all in the world if it difficult understand for some people) musical instruments have timbral colours and they of course depends of material. May be you should go to conservatory and enter every class and say that "timbres are fiction, the sound doesn't depend on material"?... Everyone will laugh at you, because any good musician knows how his instrument differs from consumer goods.

    to judge the tone of the tree, you need to compare the blanks of the same size. one type of tree at different sizes will produce a different sound. the example is not objective

    • @TheJoysofWood
      @TheJoysofWood  Рік тому

      but also the same type of tree at the same size can produce different sound, because wood isn't a perfect mechanical substance.

    Interesting demo. For some reason I could hear how "open" and clear the cherrywood and Mahogany sounded. That's why Gibson uses mahogany all the time

    This isn't a valid comparison. Each sample should be tuned to the same fundamental note, have the same proportions, and be supported at the nodal points so that they sustain maximally.
    Without that, the different pitches make more of a difference than any difference in the sound of the differnet wood species.

    Notice the changes in timbre, not Pitches. The woods are in different size so they have different pitch.

    Size and shape of the wood determine the tone.
