The Chinese yangqin is often categorized as a plucked string instrument, but in reality, it is a hammered dulcimer that is played using two bamboo sticks with rubber tips. It has a trapezium shape together with four to five courses of bridges and strings arranged chromatically.
Every musician develops their own sense of what their ideal Yangqin might sound like, and finding that instrument can certainly be a long process.

With the high amount of pressure exerted by its thin strings, it is exceptionally important that the frame of the Yangqin is constructed using hardwoods. Its paulownia soundboard should also feature a high degree of structural integrity, ensuring that it does not bend or break from both the string tension and bridge. When fitted properly onto the frame, the resultant tone color is focused yet sparkling, with a high degree of responsiveness from its flawless construction.
While even the best Yangqins can sound piercing and acidic right out the box, you can expect the tone color of the Yangqin to smoothen and mature over time, giving rise to an instrument of exceptional depth. Eight Tones Music School also ensures that all Yangqins are meticulously checked and tested by our own inhouse luthiers, ensuring that you will only receive the best products from us. To provide you with the best Yangqin possible, our luthiers will conduct a series of rigorous checks to ensure that it is well set-up before your Yangqin is packed and ready for shipment, so you can rest assured even if you choose to buy your Yangqin online.
