How to choose Guzheng? Guzheng purchase points

But for beginners, what kind of piano should we choose?

1. Determine what grade of piano you want, don't blindly pay high prices

Good is certainly not cheap, but expensive is not necessarily good. It's like if you buy it at a normal mall, it will be more expensive than at some musical instrument stores. At this time, the value of the guzheng cannot be directly proportional to the price.

2. Buy some products from good brands and big musical instrument factories

For example, Qinsheng Guzheng from Lankao Qinsheng Musical Instruments or Dunhuang from Shanghai National Musical Instrument Factory, and some other brands are also good.

3. Musical instruments with a long history, good reputation and clearly marked prices

These stores have fixed purchase channels, and will not randomly enter the inferior products of small factories.

Adhere to the above three points and not be influenced by anyone, including the salesperson of the musical instrument store and your guzheng teacher, or you have mastered certain guzheng playing skills, especially the left-hand up-and-down pitch technique, you can refer to the following points to buy Guzheng.

1. Hand feel

A well-tuned guzheng has a certain elasticity when it bounces, neither loose nor too tight. When the left hand makes up and down pitches, the bridge will not move.

2. Tone

The most important thing is that the timbre should be good. When choosing, you can ask the boss to prepare a few more pianos, tune each piano well, and then play them one by one to find a piano with strong bass, bright treble, mellow midrange and no dead tone. .
