Stunning sound and beautiful craftsmanship
I purchased this 694DQ model for my daughter's grading exam, and the tone is incredibly clear. The double cranes design is elegant, and the instrument arrived perfectly tuned. Highly recommended for serious students.

Exceeded expectations
The detailing on the 'Double Cranes Facing Sun' motif is exquisite. The sound projection is excellent for small recitals. Delivery was fast and packaging was very secure.

Great beginner to intermediate choice
Beautiful instrument with a rich sound. It took a few days to settle after shipping, but once stabilized, it sounds amazing. The case provided is sturdy and protective.

Perfect for grading exams
My teacher recommended this specific model for level 8 exams. The tonal balance across all strings is consistent, making it easy to express dynamics in complex pieces.

Professional quality instrument
As a long-time player, I can confirm this Dunhuang guzheng meets professional standards. The resonance is deep, and the high notes are crisp without being harsh. Worth every penny.

Solid investment
Very pleased with the purchase. The wood grain is beautiful, and the finish is smooth. Only minor issue was adjusting the bridges initially, but that is normal for new instruments.
Q: Is this suitable for a complete beginner?
A: Yes, while it is a performance-grade instrument, its playability makes it an excellent choice for beginners who want an instrument they won't outgrow quickly.
Q: What is the difference between the 694DQ and the 696D?
A: The 694DQ features more intricate hand-carved artwork and slightly premium wood selection, offering a richer tone suited for advanced grading and performance, whereas the 696D is a fantastic entry-level professional model.
Q: Are replacement strings available if one breaks?
A: Yes, we stock authentic Dunhuang replacement strings that are compatible with this model. You can purchase them separately in our accessories section.
Q: Do I need to tune it immediately upon arrival?
A: It is recommended to let the instrument acclimate to your room's humidity for 24 hours before doing a full tuning, as temperature changes during shipping can affect string tension.
Q: Does this come with a hard case or a soft bag?
A: This model typically comes with a high-quality padded hard case to ensure protection during transport and storage.
