Dunhuang Painted Maple Beginner Series Pipa Model 572

Dunhuang Painted Maple Beginner Series Pipa Model 572 Reviews

Other Picture

This Dunhuang brand Pipa has a smooth wood top with an Painted Maple laminated back. The decorative element atop the headstock is comprised of ebony & cow bone. This beautiful bone inset is a traditional Chinese longevity symbol. This white bone symbol of longevity conveys the five good fortunes of: Wealth, Health, Longevity, Love, and Virtue. This carving is appreciated because the owner of such a charm is said to have good health and live a long life.
This Chinese Pipa is constructed from Painted Maple masterfully selected by the artisans from Dunhuang. Maple is a very common type of wood used to make musical instruments. This particular type of maple is native to Asia and is a hardwood with a strong, long lasting quality and durability. Often used to make stringed instruments like guitars, violins and autoharps, as a tonewood it carries sound waves well producing snappy, high sounds. Due to a low velocity of sound and a high degree of internal damping, it is brighter than that of mahogany's tonewood sounds. The strings are German steel wrapped nylon.
Instrument weight: 4 lbs. Dimensions: 24" long, 14.5" across the widest part and 2" depth.

Professional Tanpura, 4 Strings, Female by A.B. Satarmaker

Professional Tanpura, 4 Strings, Female by A.B. Satarmaker Reviews

Other Picture

Professional Tanpura, 4 Strings, Female by A.B. Satarmaker Feature

• Tanpura - Female
• Measures 53" w/ 4 metal strings
• Hand crafted by A.B. Satarmaker, master craftsman
• Made in India, the city of Maraj
• Shipped insured

This 53 inch long female tanpura is made by A.B. Satarmaker, master craftsman of Miraj India. The city of Maraj is known to produce the finest tanpura in the world. The typical north Indian tanpura, favored by Hindustani musicians, is known as the Miraj style. The ABS tanpuras have been hand crafted in Miraj for over 100 years by four generations of the Balasaheb family. The art of tanpura and sitar making has been honed and improved from father to son. The Balasaheb family has perfected innovations to improve the look and sound of the instrument. They skillfully cut the pumpkin gourd to create the correct shape, and join the gourd and body pieces with precision. They understand how the thickness of the wood body and neck will affect the tone of the instrument and take great care to craft the structures of even thickness. The progenitor of the Balasaheb family originally made his tanpura from teak. Today, this wood is becoming scarce and is too costly to use.

ABS tanpuras are crafted from seasoned toon wood. The ABS tanpuras are characterized by accurate woodwork, precise joining, artful decorations, and attention to the finishing and Jawari (tuning) work. The result is a light weight instrument of high sound quality that will last for years to come. The current proprietor, A. B. Satarmaker, is as proud of his tanpura as he is proud of his family. The AMB/Miraj maker's mark is inlayed on the soundboard above the bridge. The tanpura is an Indian drone instrument known for its rich sound. It resembles the sitar in size and shape, but has no frets and no sympathetic strings. Most Tanpura have four strings tuned to the tonic, a few have 5 or 6 strings. The name of the instrument has a number of variations, including: tanpura, tanpoora, tambura, thamboora, thambura, and tamboora. Male tanpuras are larger than the female. The decorative inlays may vary, but all are artfully carved. Includes wooden case. Requires special truck delive

Gold Tone BG-250 Bluegrass Special Banjo Wide (Five String, Vintage Brown) Feature

• It is a vintage replica of the most famous banjo ever played in bluegrass music.
• All its parts are accurate reproductions of the original
• Bound rosewood fingerboard

The Bluegrass Special 250 Wide (BG-250FW) is a NEW for 2009 model that has all of the same great features found on the BG-250F model while offering a slightly wider fingerboard. The nut width is 1-5/16” (standard BG-250F is 1-3/16”). We have had many requests over the years from players with larger hands (and fingers) to make a wider neck width under the nut, and we are now happy to include the BG-250FW as a standard model to the Gold Tone line. The Bluegrass Special 250 w/ Flange (BG-250F) is the first professional 5 string banjo in our line. It is a vintage replica of the most famous banjo ever played in bluegrass music. All its parts are accurate reproductions of the original. In addition, we have added a maple neck to brighten the tone compared to the original mahogany necks and added a straightline tailpiece to provide extra downward pressure on the bridge creating even more volume. Features also include a bound rosewood fingerboard, a die cast one piece flange and 13” bound mahogany resonator, the new GT Master planetary tuners, a 3-ply Canadian maple rim, flat-top 20-hole bell brass tone ring, and a complete setup here at the Gold Tone Factory in Florida. For a no frills, straight ahead bluegrass banjo, the BG-250F can not be beat for quality and tone.
