Chladni patterns
Hi,
I just glued the bridge on the dreadnought I’m building and generated some Chladni patterns.
I have the monopole at 188 Hz, long dipole at 335 Hz and cross dipole at 378 Hz. I would expect the cross dipole to come at a lower frequency than the long dipole, but they seem to be reversed. Does anyone know why this happens?
Pictures attached. Any comments about things you can see on them, good or bad, are welcome 🙂
Thanks!
Jorge

Hello Jorge,
The behaviour of your guitar is normal, in Martin X braced guitars with the two asymmetric tonebars the two dipoles are very close in frequency around 350 Hertz, with the long dipole being usually the first to appear. If you’re interested, I had a talk on the group on this matter last weekend, it should be out soon…
Cheers,
Giuliano
