I found that many parents of qin children asked several common questions on Baidu. First, what kind of zheng should my child buy when learning Guzheng? Second, if my child is just learning the zither, should I buy a zheng for my child first. In response to the question of what guzheng parents should buy, I would like to share with parents of qin children for your reference.
Guzheng belongs to the cultural and artistic manufacturing industry, and it is also the musical instrument with the most national characteristics in my country. You can define it as a commodity or a work of art. As a luthier, I prefer to define guzheng as the use of It is a type of commodity, because the greatest value produced is for the use of piano learners.
The key to the quality of a zither lies in the materials used. I think consumers today should understand this. The other is the manufacturing technology, and finally, it has a lot to do with the experience of the violin master. Guzheng manufacturing is not mechanized production. Careful parents will find that the same batch of guzheng of the same model is actually different, and the tone and feel will be different. This is why it is related to the experience of the violin masters, because the production of guzheng is almost all done manually, and the entire production process is completed by twelve core processes, including hundreds of processes, each of which tests the experience of the masters. Taking jade as an example, for the same piece of raw material, the finished products produced by different masters are different.
The price of guzheng on the market is uneven, there are tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, and there are hundreds of thousands. So, we choose according to our own economic strength, or choose according to our own experience. I suggest trying to choose based on your own experience, because under the premise of experience support, your choice will be wiser. If you agree with my point of view on the definition of the guzheng, the guzheng is a product for use, and it is bought for children or to play by yourself, then you will focus on choosing products that are easy to use and durable, rather than blindly Choose cheap, or the so-called big name, this is my clearest suggestion to the majority of guzheng lovers.
Some people asked again, I don't know which brands to choose to be at ease. Generally, the quality of guzheng produced by old factories is guaranteed. As for the definition of an old factory, an enterprise without more than 30 years of precipitation is not an old factory. Now is the era of relatively transparent information, everyone can know the general situation of a brand by searching online. Here, I prefer the brand of Longfeng Guzheng. You can search for this company. I have visited this company several times to discuss the innovation of the modern manufacturing process of guzheng. I think it is one of the few innovative musical instrument companies in China that has independent research and development strength, raw material reserve strength, and a group of master violin masters. Recently, I heard from an old master in their factory that the Longfeng brand has been rated as a time-honored brand in Yangzhou. I have been in this industry for so many years, and it is rare for a musical instrument brand to be praised as a time-honored brand.
