When choosing a guzheng, don't buy less than 3 thousand or 4 thousand sets. Guzheng wood is everything. The model number is just a color code. Many guzheng professionals like the bare piano, that is, the piano without any patterns, which is more convenient to play when knocking. The production process of guzheng requires high requirements, good quality of raw materials and long production time. It takes at least one and a half months to complete a guzheng. Think about these material costs and labor costs. A good guzheng can't be that cheap. And some cheap guzheng on the market, the sound quality is far from good, and it may go astray before playing the sound.
Choosing a guzheng must first give yourself a position. If you are a beginner, you'd better choose a big brand when your ears haven't reached a high level of timbre discrimination. Big brand timbre helps to distinguish timbre. For example, Dunhuang in Shanghai, Dingyun in Shanghai, Crescent in Shanghai and Dong Yun in Xi. Dunhuang is a very famous brand in guzheng field, and its price is a bit expensive. Dunhuang has been making guzheng for decades. The timbre of Dunhuang Guzheng is crisp and bright, and the tension is also great. Dingyun is also a brand in Shanghai, with stable timbre. Crescent Guzheng is a hand-made brand, and its piano codes are all made of ebony, which has good sound guiding effect, delicate timbre and relatively soft strings. Xi 'an Dong Yun Guzheng was founded by Mr. Zhai Lao. Dong Yun Guzheng improved the traditional technique of digging tung. For example, we changed the radian and thickness of the panel and the size of the sound slot to avoid the shortage of high notes in the original Xi 'an Guzheng, and also used star-shaped sound holes on the bottom plate. The timbre of the improved An Guzheng in Jin State is ethereal and transparent. Of course, there are many other brands, you can consult relevant professionals and then buy according to your own budget and positioning.
