Twang
Twang is a sound characterized by a sharp, resonant quality, often associated with plucked strings or metallic objects. It's a percussive yet ringing noise, distinct from a dull thud or a sustained hum. In music, the term is frequently used to describe the sound produced by electric guitars, particularly those with a bright, trebly tone, as well as the plucking of a banjo or mandolin. The distinctive twang of a guitar is often achieved through specific pickup configurations, amplifier settings, and playing techniques like bending strings or using a pick.
Beyond musical instruments, twang can describe the sound of other vibrating objects. A stretched rubber band
