ABSTRACT:
A mute violin has a soundboard formed with a resonator, a neck projecting from the soundboard, a string holder attached to the other end of the soundboard, strings stretched between pegs screwed into the neck and the string holder and a damping bridge structure supported between a fingerboard attached to the neck and the string holder in a spacing relation to the soundboard, and the damping bridge structure is formed of viscoelastic polymer so that the vibrations are hardly propagated from the strings to the soundboard.
