Re:Guitar Decomposed: 5. Mutating the Third by acomjean on Friday May 29, 2020 @11:00AM (#23350688)
Pianos are weird.

The lowest notes, generally have one string that makes the note. The middle, have two strings (persumably to make it louder).

the high notes have 3 strings per note.

So sometimes playing one key is actually playing three tones.

Pictures from a violin/piano maintenance building school make it a little clearer: https://www.nbss.edu/full-time-programs/piano-technology/cur...
