Zhang fervently believes in the old traditional methods of erhu making as he trusts the wisdom of the older generation master luthiers passed down upon him, however, he also believes in constantly fine-tuning the designs for the current generation. Xin Yue Qin Fang has earned its reputation as being the industry leader through its fine craftsmanship, quality control, tonal excellence.
African Sandalwood
Often used by other sellers to mislead buyers into believing that it is the more expensive Indian Violet Sandalwood Erhu, the African Sandalwood boasts a beautiful red hue and its dense wood resonates with a deep and sweet tone. The Indian Violet Sandalwood is much rarer with slightly more purplish orange hue and deeper colored wood grains.
Even the simplest of pieces played by a beginner on the African Sandalwood Erhu will sound emphatic and melodious.
The key to a sensitive and good sounding Erhu lies in the resonating skin of the sound box. You will find the skin is stretched to a uniform tension across the sound box and is fitted by hand. When you gently press the skin with your fingers, you will find that it is firm to touch. This ensures that the membrane will resonate the sound box to its maximum potential so as to give you a full and deeper sound.
This traditional Suzhou style decorative window is made from a combination of Rosewood and Boxwood, the material is sturdy yet elastic to provide support to the sound box so that your Erhu will be more durable.
The elegant Suzhou styled headstock arch and six-sided tuning pegs, is a traditional design that is unique to the Suzhou styled Erhus. When you perform with this Erhu, you will find it well-balanced and light, it is less strenuous on your left hand after long hours of playing this Erhu.
