so so so
today because it's a snow day, im gonna work on my instrument MAKING. yes MAKING.
starting with a Zither, pretty cool instrument if you ask me. technically though a Zither is a category of string instruments including piano, psaltry and auto harps. what im making is called a zither but i believe it to be a psaltry. but anyway...
i plan on making a couple instruments, and i might record some stuff with FL studio.
the instruments i plan on making are gonna be made entirely of wood or other natural materials cause...i can. it'll get me better at woodworking too, or in some cases....bone working.
so yeah i want to make a couple instruments...i'll start easy, with a zither.
technically a zither could be a piece of plywood with strings. however I'm gonna make a box and that'll be my resonance chamber. then put the strings on xD. i have plans for one with like correct placement for the strings and such. the trick will be tuning xD i don't have a really great ear so maybe this will help it.
next i think i'll make a lamellophone of the thumb piano variety; a christmas present for my oldest brother, who isn't allowed a piano/keyboard where he's staying out west. that is a box too but it's more angular so i figured it'd be the next step up.
then maybe a woodwind instrument i dunno.
well if your american happy thanksgiving!
and if not, Happy day :D
