Re: Laws of Physics

[ Most common polymer materials have roughly the same density and elastic modulus so you'd have to go out of your way to find something significantly different from the norm (like a polyimide) to have a measurable effect. ]

Actual lacquer (which is dissolved bug shells of a certain bug), or varnish, which could be just about anything as the active coating ingredient, can vary considerably in their stiffness, internal damping, amount of wood penetration, sealing effect, etc.

Besides, who said anything about measuring it, what would matter is how it sounded.
