There are two ways to vibrate the strings. The first way is to pluck them. This is also called pizzicato. The second way is to use a bow, which is the most common way people play the violin during most musical pieces. The bow is usually made from wood, but it can also be made from fiberglass or carbon fiber. The bow is strung with finely combed horsehair.
