Re: don't agree...

the violin can be played pizzicato, the guitar can be bowed, a la Jimmy Page, and the various attacks and decays can be duplicated on both instruments. I play both- and can do that easily. But even with the exact same decay and attack, the tones are very different. Attack and decay to play a large part in defining any tone and are very important, but not to explain the diff the original poster asked. There's tons of physics on the web about this- and one of the best research groups is in Oz, so check it out.

Here's a link to get you started- visit other links in this group. All fascinating.
