Egyptian 9-Strings Simsimmiya
€180.00
This Egyptian 9-string simsimmiya is a traditional plucked string instrument, strongly associated with Egyptian folk music, the repertoires of the Suez Canal region and festive oriental accompaniment.
Compared with the 6-string version, this 9-string model offers greater melodic possibilities and a richer sound. It allows for more nuanced playing while preserving the clear, direct and warm character of the simsimmiya.
Its round body, open shape and decorative details give it a very distinctive visual presence. The ornamental patterns around the body reinforce its traditional and artisanal character, making it an instrument that is as pleasant to look at as it is to play.
This model also features a built-in jack output, allowing the instrument to be easily amplified for stage performance, rehearsals or recording. This amplification option makes the simsimmiya more versatile, especially for modern projects, amplified oriental ensembles and world music.
The 9-string simsimmiya is particularly suited for musicians who want to go further than an entry-level model, with an instrument that is more expressive, more complete and better suited to developed melodic playing.
Its clear tone, direct response and electro-acoustic format make it an excellent choice for curious musicians, lovers of Egyptian music and artists wishing to add a rare and authentic sound color to their compositions.
