The string itself when played with a bow would not create a loud sound if not for the body of the violin. The majority of the sound comes from the vibration of the strings on the bridge, which transfers the vibration to the body of the instrument. Inside the instrument, beneath the bridge under the E-string there is a stick of wood called a sound post wedged vertically between the front and back which carries the vibration to the wood on the underside. Beneath the G-string of the bridge there is a bar that runs lengthwise on the inside of the front panel called a bass bar, which helps to distribute the lower pitched vibrations. The instrument is made of a dried wood that is cut thinly, the thickness and density of the wood, as well as the shaping of the chamber create the characteristic of the instruments sound. This and other more subtle aspects of the construction. The bow is not the cause of the sound.
