Known for its delicate, intimate, and deeply mystical tone, the instrument has evolved over centuries from the ancient tanbur family. The Name: \"Setar\" literally translates to \"three strings\" in Persian (se = three, tar = string). However, eventhough the name means three strings, a fourth drone string (called sim moshtagh) was added in the 18th to 19th century by the Sufi mystic Moshtaq Ali Shah to give the instrument a richer sound. \u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px none rgb(230, 232, 240);'\u003eCrafted from aged \u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003emulberry wood\u003c!--TgQPHd||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, the body consists of a small, pear-shaped bowl covered by a thin wooden soundboard, and the neck is m\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-sfc-cb=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style='font-family: \"Google Sans\", Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px none rgb(230, 232, 240);'\u003eade of durable \u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003ewalnut wood\u003c!--TgQPHd||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e to withstand string tension.\u003c!--TgQPHd||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength: 33.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale Length: 27\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut: 1\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: .6 lbs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrets: 25 \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003emovable gut frets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncludes Hard Case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFully insured shipping within the continental US is $50 via UPS, for all other locations please inquire.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House of Musical Traditions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41520844931130,"sku":"C261307MAJ","price":400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1013\/8813\/files\/PXL_20260713_204040289.jpg?v=1783975707","url":"https:\/\/hmtrad.com\/products\/persian-setar-used-1","provider":"House of Musical Traditions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
