Perfect for my conservatory exams
I bought this for my grading exam and the tone is incredibly clear. The African rosewood finish looks professional and the resonance is excellent across all octaves.

Great upgrade from my student model
The difference in sound quality compared to my old instrument is night and day. The 402 model holds tuning very well even after long practice sessions.

Professional quality at a reasonable price
As a semi-professional player, I am very impressed. The projection in a concert hall setting is strong, and the craftsmanship from Xinghai is top-notch.

Beautiful tone and appearance
The color of the wood is rich and elegant. It came in a sturdy hard case which made shipping safe. Highly recommend for anyone serious about learning.

Excellent resonance
The bass notes are deep and the highs are crisp without being shrill. It took a few days to break in the strings, but now it plays beautifully.

Solid instrument with minor setup needed
Overall a fantastic yangqin. The wood is beautiful and sturdy. I had to adjust the bridges slightly upon arrival, but once set up, it sounds amazing.
