ABSTRACT:
To improve the sonority of a musical instrument which is made at least in part of wood, the wood before becoming a part of the instrument is subjected to sonic energy for causing surface erosion as a result of cavitation. The wood, usually a panel, preferably is treated when it is in its substantially final shape, but devoid of a surface coating. A liquid, such as water, comprises the coupling means between the source of sonic energy and the wood, and the frequency of the sonic energy, suitably, is in the range between 5 kHz and 100 kHz.
