Excellent for exams

Used this for my grade 5 music exam and the examiner commented on the tone quality. The 402 model has enough range for most standard repertoire. Very happy with this purchase from Xinghai.

Great value for the price

The craftsmanship is solid. It arrived well-packaged with no cracks. The tuning held up well after the first week of practice. The only minor issue is that the mallets included are a bit basic, but easy to replace.

Solid practice instrument

As a teacher, I recommend this model to all my new students. It is durable and stays in tune reasonably well. The bridge placement is accurate, making it easier for beginners to learn proper technique.

Perfect for my first Yangqin

I bought this for my daughter who is just starting her music lessons. The sound is surprisingly clear and bright for a beginner instrument. The African rosewood gives it a nice weight and professional look. Highly recommended for students.

Exceeded expectations

I was worried about buying an instrument online, but this exceeded my expectations. The rosewood resonates beautifully, and the case provided is sturdy enough for transport to weekly lessons.

Beautiful color wood finish

The aesthetic appeal of this instrument is stunning. The color wood veneer looks elegant on stage. Sound projection is good even in a medium-sized hall without amplification.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the difference between the Color Wood and plain Rosewood versions?

A: The acoustic properties are very similar as both use African Rosewood for the soundboard. The 'Color Wood' refers to the decorative veneer on the body frame, offering a variety of aesthetic finishes without compromising sound quality.

Q: Is this instrument suitable for professional performances?

A: While the 402 model is designed primarily for beginners and students, many intermediate players use it for small recitals and exams due to its reliable tone. Professional soloists usually prefer our 501 or 601 series for larger concert halls.

Q: How often does this Yangqin need tuning?

A: Like all string instruments, it requires tuning before each practice session. New strings may stretch initially, requiring more frequent adjustments during the first month. Afterward, it should hold pitch stability well under normal humidity conditions.

Q: Are replacement strings easily available for this model?

A: Yes, the Xinghai 402 uses standard gauge steel strings that are widely available. We sell complete replacement sets specifically cut for the 402 model on our store page.

Q: Does this come with a hard case or a soft bag?

A: The Beijing Xinghai 402 typically comes with a padded soft carrying case that offers good protection for daily transport and storage. A hard shell case can be purchased separately if needed for air travel.
