- Description
Description
A sonometer is a two-string guitar device that uses hanging weights to create tension in the strings. The two strings have different densities. The student can vary the lengths of the strings using the included bridges and a pick (included) or finger to pluck the strings. Sonometers are used to study standing waves in strings, wave speed, and musical instruments.
Built-in Features
- Tuning gears for fine adjustment of string tension
- 5-to-1 tensioning lever allows the tension to be five times the hanging weight
- Rulers on both sides to measure the string length to the indicator on the bridge
- Sounding board for resonating the sound of the vibrating strings
- Stainless steel string guides for durability
Designed for use with
- Tuning Forks
- Sound Sensor
