The first harmonic, is the fundamental frequency, or 550 Hz. The second harmonic would be twice that, or 1100 Hz. The third would be twice that, or 1650 Hz and so on...

How do you fix bad bass or guitar intonation?

To intonate a guitar the length of the string has to be altered so that the 12th fret harmonic matches the fretted note at the 12th. If you have changed string gauge, adjusted the truss rod or set string height then the intonation will need setting as the LAST thing you do. The method of adjusting the string length differs on guitars, but is generally a small slot-head or Philips machine screw going through the saddle on each string or pairs of strings. On a Floyd Rose vibrato the adjustment is a bit more complicated and I won't go into detail here unless requested. To start, first plug your guitar into a good tuner, preferably a strobe tuner but any old tuner will do. You can start with any string but it will make sense for me to start with describing the low E string: First tune the 12th fret harmonic to a perfect 'E'. If you don't know how to do this then ask someone who does to show you, as it is fairly hard to understand without seeing it. In theory just rest a finger of your left hand lightly directly ABOVE the physical 12th fret wire and pluck the string with your right hand to hear a bell like note. Anyway tune this harmonic to E, then hold down the 12th fret and pluck that too, ideally it should be a perfect E as well, the same as the harmonic, if not then its time to get out the screwdrivers! Taking the harmonic as your constant, if the fretted note is FLAT, then you have to SHORTEN the string, if it is SHARP, you need to LENGTHEN the string. Adjust the string length as necessary for each string by turning the saddle screw, making sure you retune the harmonic after each adjustment until the harmonic and fretted 12th match perfectly. Then your guitar should play perfectly in tune!

Which one is the first string on the guitar?

Depends.... 1st string is the small, thin E string, but can also be, in some eyes, the fat E string. People always argue over this, but go with the the thin E string.

What are the fundamental and first three audible overtones?

The fundamental = 1st harmonic is not an overtone! Fundamental frequency = 1st harmonic. 2nd harmonic = 1st overtone. 3rd harmonic = 2nd overtone. 4th harmonic = 3rd overtone. Look at the link: "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency"


What is the difference between the first harmonic and first overtone?

The first harmonic is the fundamental. The second harmonic the first overtone. The third harmonic the second overtone. The fourth harmonic the third overtone. Even-numbered harmonics are odd-numbered overtones. Odd-numbered harmonics are even-numbered overtones.

In physics is the fourth harmonic the third overtone. Even-numbered harmonics are odd-numbered overtones. Odd-numbered harmonics are even-numbered overtones.


Give an example of a common standing wave?

A guitar string vibrating at its fundamental frequency (first harmonic) is an example of a common standing wave. The fixed ends of the guitar string create nodes, and the string vibrates in segments with antinodes in between.


The of vibration of a wave is defined as that which has the lowest frequency?

The fundamental frequency of a wave is the lowest frequency at which it can vibrate. This frequency corresponds to the first harmonic or the wave's base frequency. It is the most stable and strongest frequency that the wave can produce.


How are overtone related to the fundamental tone?

The first harmonic is the fundamental. The second harmonic the first overtone. The third harmonic the second overtone. The fourth harmonic the third overtone. Even-numbered harmonics are odd-numbered overtones. Odd-numbered harmonics are even-numbered overtones.


What is the fundamental frequency of a particular medium?

The fundamental frequency of a medium refers to the lowest frequency at which the medium can vibrate in a standing wave pattern. It is determined by the physical properties of the medium, such as tension, density, and length. The fundamental frequency is also known as the first harmonic.
