sympathetic strings

SIM-pah-theh-tik streengz

[English]

Those strings on some stringed instruments that are not set into motion directly by the bow or plectrum, but vibrate by means of their immediate proximity to other strings which are set very closely above them. The upper strings are set into motion by a bow or plectrum.
