Regardless of the
fundamental, the distance from each overtone remains the same.
For example, if the string was tuned to "F", the overtones would create
an "F" Major Triad. The subsequent overtone "Eb" then becomes the
seventh of the "F" chord.
Just like a string, sound
waves through air also divide into overtones. This is why a bugle
player (or any brass instrument) can play so many different notes, they
are just moving up and down the overtones.
Even the distance of our planets from the
sun is mathematically the same distance as the overtones. Kind of
like a Heavenly Chord. (Hmmm)
