Professional Tuned Full Size Ektara From Bengal

Professional Tuned Full Size Ektara From Bengal

Description

This Professional concert ektara (1 string) instrument is a full size model. Used by many folk artists worldwide.The ektara usually has a stretched single string, an animal skin over a head (made of dried pumpkin/gourd, wood or coconut) and pole neck or split bamboo cane neck.

Pressing the two halves of the neck together loosens the string, thus lowering its pitch. The modulation of the tone with each slight flexing of the neck gives the ektara its distinctive sound. There are no markings or measurements to indicate what pressure will produce what note, so the pressure is adjusted by ear.
