The interesting thing is that if you tap the bridge with the flesh of your fingertip, and use that curve to perform a digital convolution, you get the sound of the string played with short/no nails.

However, if you tap the bridge with your fingernails (or a pick for that matter), you get the sound of the string played with fingernails or a pick.
