Son loves it!
Bought this for my 10-year-old son who just started lessons. He finds it easy to hold and play. The included bag is a nice bonus for carrying it to class safely.

Highly recommended for beginners
This is the standard entry-level Pipa for a reason. Durable, good sounding, and sized perfectly for children. Fast shipping from the specialty store too.

Beautiful finish and sound
The wood grain is gorgeous. It sounds bright and resonant. Only giving 4 stars because the strings were a bit loose on arrival, but easy to tighten.

Authentic Dunhuang quality
As a music teacher, I recommend Dunhuang often. This youth model maintains the brand's reputation. The tone is warm, and the craftsmanship is excellent for the price point.

Perfect starter instrument for my daughter
We bought the Model 594 for our 7-year-old. The size is just right for her small hands, and the sound quality is surprisingly clear for a beginner instrument. It came well-packaged with a sturdy bag.

Good value, minor setup needed
The Pipa looks beautiful and feels solid. I had to adjust the bridge slightly upon arrival, but once set up, it plays very nicely. Great choice for youth students.
Q: Does this come with a hard case or just a soft bag?
A: This package includes a high-quality padded soft gig bag. Hard cases are available for purchase separately if you require extra protection for travel.
Q: What is the difference between models 594 and 597?
A: Model 594 is designed for younger children (ages 5-8) with a slightly smaller body, while model 597 is suited for older youth (ages 9-12) with a marginally larger scale length.
Q: Are the strings pre-installed and tuned?
A: Yes, the Pipa comes with strings pre-installed. However, due to shipping conditions, we recommend checking the tuning and making minor adjustments before the first play.
Q: Is this suitable for an adult with small hands?
A: While designed for youth, adults with smaller hands may find these models comfortable. However, for standard repertoire progression, a full-sized adult Pipa is generally recommended eventually.
Q: How long is the warranty on this instrument?
A: All Dunhuang instruments purchased from our specialty store come with a 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
