*2011 , & Jeff Forshaw, The Quantum Universe , Allen Lane 2011, p. 96:

*:This is very clear for the standing waves on a guitar string: the fundamental has a wavelength of twice the length of the string, and the next longest allowed wavelength is equal to the length of the string. There is no standing wave with a wavelength between these two and so we can say that the allowed wavelengths on a guitar string are quantized .
