Just saw one of these for sale at a flea market today. Never heard of this instrument before and purely by accident stumbled across this musician and instrument when looking up mountain lions in Connecticut. How did that happen. Fate I guess. Beautiful sound.
I am in love with this instrument, sadly not many who plays it.. You are wonderful and amazing at playing this beautiful instrument. - Kindly, could you please play " The Bannered Mare " and " Ancient Stones " soundtracks of Skyrim on the zither? - Thank you in advance.
I bought 10 meters of 0.016 solid piano piano string wire. Have just a 3 chord, c,f, and g. With 21 single strings. Used a micrometer to size string. I think size 6, us measurement.
Would it be a good bnb idea to have those 5 major chords, c, f, g, d, Bb. Then use a harp lever to hold onto major scale. Then release harp lever to have those 5 minor chords. No, i guess not. As a newbie, i believe you would need the 3rd note of the chord minored. Im trying to understand. I believe i need to go get your 5 chord tuning and then understand it. A 6 chord zither, i suppose should st as y chromatic. Ill look up the comments to try to get it. Thank you, Etienne.
Hey Etienne, what would you recommend to use as a marker underneath your melody strings. Do you mark your c and g only. Or what sir. Your dedication is remarkable. I want to put new strings on mine and play in nursing home. Thank you sir. Norman in Texas near cajun Louisiana.
Use vinyl stickers from an art and craft shop. Cut squares (4mm sides) and dots (use a hole punch). Yes, diamonds for Cs and Gs and dots for the bflats.
Good question. Absolutely go for 4 strings. Less strings to tune, but mainly it is not possible to do fast strumming across such a wide chord. A 7 string chord sounds good if it is strummed slowly across - not suitable for faster pieces. Cheers.

@@guitarzither i thank you, Sir.
What is the difference between a 4 and 7 string, just volume ? Which do you recommend ?
Good question. Absolutely go for 4 strings. Less strings to tune, but mainly it is not possible to do fast strumming across such a wide chord. A 7 string chord sounds good if it is strummed slowly across - not suitable for faster pieces. Cheers.
Thanks.
This seems to have double strings. Is there another one with single strings on other videos? Great stuff!
Yes. Listen to "A Zither Sonata". Cheers
Etienne how long did it take you to learn how to play the Zither. Do you know how to play guitar 🎸?

Whats the name/compositor of the song?
How did you get levers on a zither? Amazing!
One of my student's partner made them for me along time ago. Very handy!
Waaaau!!
