Lavta Yildirim Wenge Amaranth

Designed for demanding musicians, this lavta stands out for its carefully crafted handmade construction, its high-quality wood selection and its excellent acoustic response, offering an instrument that is both reliable, expressive and musical.

The bowl, made from a combination of wenge and amaranth, provides great structural stability as well as an elegant aesthetic, marked by deep and refined contrasts. These dense woods contribute to controlled projection and a solid tonal foundation, while maintaining good clarity.

The spruce soundboard brings clarity, dynamism and sensitivity to the touch. It allows for a fast and precise response, essential for the lavta, an instrument known for its articulation finesse and melodic richness.

The ebony fingerboard and tuning pegs ensure excellent tuning stability, high durability and optimal playing comfort, even in a professional context.
