Does anyone play Lavta on this forum? If yes, I want to know a few things about it.
The one I have didn't have as many frets as it should have. It had only 12. How many frets does it usually have? I have seen on youtube that it has
many.
Second-what is the usual tuning for it ? I'm assuming CGDA.
And where do you get the strings for it (I just emailed Pyramid strings but I'm guessing there's other sources)
Third, any interesting info on that great instrument would be appreciated!
I am planning on visiting turkey in the coming year to learn more about it.
Thanks a lot!
