Egyptian 12-Strings Simsimmiya

Its refined appearance is also part of its charm: the instrument features beautiful geometric decoration around the body, as well as an openwork decorative rosette that reinforces its artisanal and traditional identity.

This simsimmiya is also equipped with a built-in jack output, allowing it to be easily amplified for stage performance, rehearsals or recording. This makes it especially interesting for musicians wishing to integrate the instrument into modern, amplified or fusion contexts.

Thanks to its richer sound, electro-acoustic format and increased number of strings, this 12-string model is particularly suited to musicians who want to explore the simsimmiya further with a more expressive and ambitious instrument.
