Solid construction

Very sturdy instrument. The bridges were pre-positioned which saved me some time setting it up. The tone is bright and pleasant. Only minor issue was a slight adjustment needed on one of the tuning pins, but nothing major.

Beautiful sound and look

The craftsmanship on this DL21 model is impressive. The basswood resonates nicely, and the wine red color matches my practice room perfectly. Highly recommend for anyone entering the world of Chinese hammered dulcimers.

Good but needs setup

The instrument itself is nice, but it required significant tuning and bridge alignment out of the box. Once set up correctly, it sounds great. Just be prepared to spend an hour or two getting it ready if you are new to this.

Exceeded expectations

I was worried about buying an instrument online, but this Yangqin is fantastic. The plain surface design is classic, and the sound projection is surprisingly good for a beginner model. My teacher approved of the quality immediately.

Perfect starter instrument

I bought this for my daughter who is just starting to learn the Yangqin. The wine red finish is beautiful and the basswood body produces a warm, clear tone. It arrived well-packaged and ready to tune.

Great value for the price

As a beginner, I didn't want to spend a fortune. This Lehai model offers excellent quality for the cost. The plain surface looks elegant without being too flashy. Tuning stability is decent after the initial break-in period.

5 FAQ

Q: Is this suitable for professional performances?

A: While this is designed primarily for beginners and students, many advanced players use it as a backup or practice instrument. For main stage professional performances, you might eventually consider our concert-grade series.

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

A: This model typically comes with a durable soft carrying case that includes padding for protection during transport. A hard case can be purchased separately if needed.

Q: What is the difference between the plain surface and carved surface models?

A: The main difference is aesthetic. The plain surface has a smooth, unadorned finish, while carved models feature intricate designs on the soundboard. There is no significant difference in sound quality between the two for this specific model line.

Q: Do I need to buy mallets separately?

A: Yes, mallets are usually sold separately to allow you to choose the hardness and weight that best suits your playing style. We recommend bamboo or rattan mallets for beginners.

Q: How often does this instrument need tuning?

A: Like all string instruments, the Yangqin will need tuning before each practice session, especially when new. As the strings settle over a few weeks, it will hold its tune longer. Changes in humidity and temperature also affect tuning stability.
