Introducing the tanbur instrument

The persian tanbur is a wound string instrument that consists of three general parts: the handle, the resonant bowl, and the strings. The handle of the tanbur is very tall (about 70 to 80 cm) and its resonant bowl is made of several pieces. How many strings does the tanbur instrument have? In the past, tanbur had two strings, but today this number has increased to three. There are two main tunes for the tanbur: the seven-handed tuning and the five-handed persian tanbur tuning.
