Beautiful Harmonics


The Cümbüş Saz is a Turkish stringed instrument with a metal resonator and skin soundboard much like a banjo. This folk instrument is traditionally plucked, but after spending some time in the studio recording world music aficionado Dominik Johnson messing around with one, we discovered that when it is bowed it creates beautiful warm harmonics and thick pad like sounds.
