What is Sasando?

Sasando is a music instrument from Rote, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. This is played by plucking. The materials are from palm leaves, a bamboo, and strings.

This instrument is like a guitar that has strings and the electric form (use a cable that related to amplifier).

Are you interest with it?

Please write in a comment if you want to buy it!

  1. Hello! I am very interested in purchasing a Sasando! Is it chromatic? Could I play western concert music on it? I know it has 56 strings, but does is have a full range?

    1. Hello! Thank you for visiting this blog. It's usually just painted motives at bamboo. Of course you can play whataver musics you want. This is one example of an Indonesia pop music that was played by Sasando.
