And the body cavity need not be the mouth - some bows have a cupped shell that rests on the stomach and can be raised and lowered onto the belly skin to vary tone and volume. Others have a ligature a third of the way along the bowline, attached to the bow shaft, to give two notes. Other players hold a coin on the bowline to get the two note effect.
