👉 Gibson's principle, also known as the Gibson-Lorentzian model, is a theoretical model of how sound waves are produced by vibrating strings. It was first proposed by physicist and engineer John P. Gibson in 1924. The principle states that when a string vibrates at a certain frequency, it produces sound waves with a particular wavelength. This phenomenon has been studied extensively for its potential applications in various fields such as acoustics, engineering, and music theory.
