Study Notes

Violin Anatomy

The neck connects the violin's body to the headstock, facilitating sound amplification through resonance.
The fingerboard is a strip of wood running along the neck, providing a surface for the player to press down on strings, changing pitch.
The pegbox located at the top of the violin's headstock holds the tuning pegs.
F-holes are two f-shaped openings on the violin's body. They are soundholes, allowing sound waves to resonate and amplify.
Fine tuners are small mechanisms attached to the tailpiece. They allow for precise adjustments of the string's tension, resulting in more accurate tuning.
