The bowed psaltery is a great instrument for someone who would like to play the fiddle, but who lacks the time to learn that instrument. The psaltery has thirty-two strings each of which is tuned to a different note as with the harp. It is played by moving the bow from string-to-string to create the music. There is no easier to play bowed instrument in the world. The psaltery is fully chromatic allowing it to be played in any key. Bowed psalteries come with a cloth case and a bow.
