Handmade Traditional Xinjiang Uyghur Ghijek / Violin

The word tambur comes from the Arabic 'tunbur', and it is widely believed that this comes from the Sumerian word 'pantur', a semispherical stringed instrument with a long stem. Another view is that it comes from the words (tabla, tabl, tabul etc.) for percussion instruments that have been used since the very earliest times. There is mention in the Hittite civilization of a stringed instrument called a 'TIBULA'. It is generally agreed that this was in all probability a long-stemmed stringed instrument. Texts from those times reveal that it was used to accompany the spoken word and dancing.

Aquila Arabic Oud (cgdAFC) OUD A1 Strings

Aquila Arabic Oud (cgdAFC) OUD A1 Strings Reviews

Aquila Arabic Oud (cgdAFC), OUD-A1 IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION: Nylgut is a completely different material than Nylon and needs a bit of extra care during installation because of its soft surface and different molecular structure. First check that the string channels in the nut are rounded and have no sharp edges, especially the lower edges facing the fingerboard. Because the string approaches from a slightly downward angle, if that edge is sharp the string can hang up on it, create a burr and break. It needs to be just slightly radiused, and this procedure can be done with very fine sand paper and an old string, or a small round file. Some makers ignore this because Nylon strings are very hard and can withstand a poor set up. Sometimes bridge saddle edges on the tying side are sharp as well and should be radiused slightly with fine sandpaper. It is good to help the strings over the nut by lifting them slightly right at the nut as you tune up. Plain Nylgut trebles stretch like crazy so you should also cinch the strings up tight on the barrels before winding. Be sure not to overlap wound strings on the tuning barrels. The preferred method is to put a set on an instrument in the evening, bring them just up to pitch, let them sit overnight, and finish tuning in the morning. This allows the molecules some time to adjust to being stretched. Give them a week or so to stretch in fully (less for ukulele strings) before passing any judgment on tone as it takes a while for them to develop their best sound.

Handmade Traditional Xinjiang Uyghur Dutar / Long Necked Lute

The dutar is a two string pear-shaped long-necked lute from western China, played by the Uighur and Uzbek people of Xinjiang Province. Although western ethnomusicologists state that these instruments came from the Persian dutar or dotar (originally a two-string instrument but now with four strings), the Uyghur people say that the Persian instrument descended from theirs.

Dutar can be found in almost every Uyghur home. It is used for family members to sing songs together, as well as the very first musical instrument for young Uyghurs to learn. Music plays an important role for Uyghurs¡¯ life, and dutar is an essential instrument that all Uyghurs, both male and female, can play it well.
