violin viola cello-piano

[Joe & Penny Goss]

hi all,
the topic line reminded me of a trick for eliminating the mismatched over
tones of wild bass strings. Walter Spencer my mentor ( passed away last
December ) showed me to put a rubber wedge or felt punching above the
windings to mute down the offending string. Yes it is not the best way to
go, but the point is that the upper partials are damped, like the bow on
the string, making the unison easy to tune.
