That's pretty cool Nate. I almost kinda sorta understand. Maybe you can make a recording contrasting the instrument as is with the instrument with the two areas of excess muted somehow, like just putting a sock over the strings or something. That might demonstrate your point about the extra sustain.
Can you hear the sympathetic ringing at all?
Yeah that would have been a good idea Dusty lol. The whole video was super scatter brained, i remade it several times because i just kept getting lost on rambling unimportant details. I will have to make a quick comparison video soon. You can definitely hear the difference, but the small gap at the top might be too subtle to hear on mic. Its pretty neat, if you just pluck the bass string behind the bridge, then dampen it right away, you can hear all 11 of the other sections of string vibrate sympathetically.

here is a quick demo palm muting the area behind the bridge. The area above the zero fret is too subtle to hear over the mic I have
