Incredible Deals and Offers On Unique String Folk & World Instruments

Don't settle for the same old sound. Discover amazing deals and exclusive discounts on a massive range of stringed folk & musical instruments of the world. Have a look at the various kinds of such instruments that you can purchase online.

Traditional Lutes & Ouds

The Oud is often called the "King of Instruments," and for good reason. These ancestors of the guitar feature a deep, pear-shaped body and a fretless neck, giving you that smooth, sliding sound you hear in Middle Eastern music.

They are built with thin, resonant wood to project a warm, earthy tone that’s pure magic. Think of them as the hand pliers of the folk world. They’re all about grip and nuanced control. Pick one up if you want to master those haunting, microtonal melodies. Listen to a user who enjoyed the music on Oud and shared his views on Reddit.

"i admit i havent heard of the oud instrument before now but im in love with the sound of it,  i think u've created a wonderful piece. this is the kind of music i like to listen to when meditating, focusing, or trying to fall asleep... thank u for sharing!"

Banjos & Folk Plucked Strings

If you need a sound that cuts through a crowd like a hot knife, the banjo is your best friend. With a drum-like body and a tensioned skin head, it’s designed for high-volume twang and rhythmic punch.

These are the keys of your ensemble as they provide the torque and "snap" that keep a bluegrass or folk band moving. They are tough, loud, and incredibly fun to play. You should grab one if you love fast-paced fingerpicking and a bright, unmistakable energy. See what users say about them on Reddit.

"Having played many instruments in my time I think it’s because banjo players simply have the most fun with their instrument. There’s no one right way to play, no high class banjo snobbery, it’s just too much fun to not be stoked about a new bee starting out and also having fun!"

Harps & Lyres

Looking for something more... celestial? Harps and lyres are some of the unique instruments from around the world that have been calming nerves for centuries. Their open-frame design allows the strings to vibrate freely, creating a shimmering, ethereal wash of sound.

They act like the screwdrivers in a musician’s kit. It’s perfect for those precise, delicate touches that pull a whole piece together. Pick these for their incredible sustain and the way they turn any room into a peaceful sanctuary.

Bowed Folk Strings

From the spiked fiddles of Asia to the Erhu’s two-stringed cry, bowed folk string instruments are built for the soul. These use a wooden soundbox and are often covered in snakeskin or thin pine, and a bow that sits between the strings.

They are the tools of emotional storytelling. Because they lack frets, you have total freedom to make the instrument weep or sing. You’ll want these if you’re looking to add a raw, human-like vocal quality to your latest studio recording or live set.
