Here are some of Joe's other instruments...maybe you can tell us more about them man.TruePharaoh21 - 3-4-2005 at 11:37 PM
Hey everyone. I'll try to explain this as best as I can, and if I leave anything out in this post, I'll try to add on to it in a following one. From
what I've gather about the first of the two ouds posted in Mike's post, there are an extra 7 strings that have been added to the oud that are called
sympathetic strings. These strings are not to be plucked, but when you play the regular strings on the oud, these will resonate with some of the notes
that are being played. When the played doesn't want these strings to be a part of the sound, they simply can put some sticky tape on them, and they're
muted.
If you were to strike these strings, they'd sound like a kanun or a harp. Is that cool, or what??
As far as the tuning goes... it changes from maqam to maqam. For Nahawand on Fa, it has been suggested that the sympathetic strings be tuned to C, G,
Ab, f, f(octave higher), e, F two octaves lower or an Ab. If the maqam changes, the tuning on the strings would have to as well. So one would strictly
have to play the maqam that has been set to match what the sympathetic strings have been tuned to.
Sounds like an awesome idea to me.

like a sitar that uses sympathetic strings. Neat ideaRonny Andersson - 3-5-2005 at 08:23 AM

Yes but this is nothing new in the world of lutes. Sympathetic strings have been around for several hundreds of years and just take a look at the
