Back to the fork
In my younger days, I owned a tuning fork. Used a tuning fork. Knew about that sweet spot on my mastoid, allowing “natural amplification” while trying to coax a set of recalitrant timpani up to pitch during a long rest. Oh, the skills we needed. When it came time to move to other instruments, I learned that my violin could be brought into tune by use of the fork (and harmonics). Felt good, too.
