NEW 19" AUTHENTIC INDIAN BASS GOPICHAND SOPRANO EKTARA INSTRUMENT
Gopichand is a one-string instrument used in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan. Pressing the two halves of the neck together pushes the peghead away from the body, thereby tightening the string and raising its pitch. The modulation of the tone with each slight flexing of the neck gives the Gopichand its distinctive sound. There are no markings or measurements to indicate what pressure will produce what note, so the pressure is adjusted by ear. This one stringed instrument provides a range of deep sounds, in one long slur.
Approximately 19" x 3". Smallest of the Gopichands, with the highest pitch. This one stringed instrument provides a range of sounds, in one long slur, by applying pressure to the side struts.
