7 String Cow Skin Uyghur Rebab
Carved from the wood of the Mulberry tree and having a Cow Skin face; this rare stringed instrument comes from Kashgar, an outpost on the ancient Silk Road. This high quality handmade, traditional Uyghur instrument has 7 strings and is approximately 90cm long. It can also be made to order with 5 to 9 strings, please specify in your order if you want a different version. This Rebab is the most popular instrument among the Uyghurs .
The Uyghur Rebab also known as the Oyma Rebab in antiquity is commonly outfitted with 6-7 fixed strings, although the ancient examples only have three strings. Only the front two strings are for performing melodies whereas the rest are sympathetic strings that “sing along” to create an unbelievably rich sound. We will provide music scores and tuning informations for your Rebab .
