SOUNDBOARD & STRINGS

Crafted from Grade 3 Paulownia wood, this soundboard was aged for 5 years before being used to construct this instrument. Priding itself on using only the finest materials, Shanghai Dunhuang insists on air drying its soundboards, lending a warm tone to these Guzhengs. Matched with Dunhuang Type A strings, this combination yields a Guzheng that sounds especially smooth.
