Guqin, also known as Yaoqin, Yuqin and Qixian, is a traditional Chinese plucked stringed instrument with a history of more than 3,000 years. Guqin has a wide range, deep timbre and long aftertone.

1. Play the board

The noise generated by the collision between the strings and the piano surface generally occurs when we press the strings or play the empty strings to disperse the sound. It is usually caused by the deformation of the piano surface and the lower body of the piano. If a new guqin plays the board, then there is no doubt that it is an unqualified guqin

2, evil sound/kill sound

If the piano surface is not flat, then when the strings are pressed, the strings and the piano surface will produce a harsh noise. Like playing the board, the presence of a shaky sound indicates that the violin is unqualified or seriously deformed.

3. Anti-finger

The strings and the surface of the piano are too high, and you will feel pain and difficulty in your hands when pressing the strings. It can be said that this piano is anti-fingered. Playing the anti-fingered piano for a long time not only hurts the hand but also affects learning.

Therefore, a qualified guqin must at least meet the three requirements of not playing the board, not resisting fingers, and no evil sound, otherwise this qin can be called the "artifact" mentioned by the guqin circle. Don't get it wrong, guqin The "artifact" in the circle refers to the inferior and cheap guqin purchased online. This kind of guqin is of extremely poor quality and can't even be played! I hope that the majority of piano friends must be careful when buying pianos, and don't buy "artifacts"!
