If you are like me, you are looking at this because you have found the guqin captivating, and think you would like to learn it, but you aren't entirely sure -- and you want to spend as little as possible while still getting a good enough instrument to learn on. This is probably the guqin you want. Full disclosure - I'm a westerner who has very little familiarity with the instrument, and I do not have anything to compare it to... but I have bough several stringed instruments in many price ranges, and I have seen the best and the worst of them. This is, of course, not going to match up with a hand carved instrument from the finest woods available. But you likely knew that. When I ordered this, I expected it to take a month and a half. It came in in just over two weeks - extremely well packed, as well. It was surprisingly close to being in tune, so the setup seems solid. It didn't take long to refine the tuning and just start experimenting. There's a slight laquer smell, but nothing offensive, and it largely dissipated after opening the package. It shipped with an instructional book (in Chinese, as you'd expect) and a couple of bits of a "no slip" mat and a microfiber - and a soft case. I'm assuming the no-slip bits are to place under the instrument when you lean it up against the wall, assuming you aren't hanging it up. At least that's what I'm using it for. (Edit: this wasn’t the intention, it’s for putting under the tuning pegs and the goose feet- but it also works good for how I use it) The guqin itself? In short, I am blown away by the quality of this for what I paid. I've spent about this much on other instruments, and I've had them come in poorly packed, or with rusty strings, or some other problem. No problems here. The dots line up where you'd expect them to on the scale, and everything feels tightly assembled - I have no concerns about the durability of the instrument. Placing it on my table and trying to play, I can't help but smile - the sound travels quite nicely through the table to the floor, and you can feel it in your feet. Moving it to my lap, it is subdued enough to learn on without disturbing others. Again, I can't compare to other guqins, but this is so much better than anything I expected for the price. It reminds me of the plywood Kay Cellos/Basses in terms of how it feels - solid, good to learn on, and playable, but probably not what you'd take as the lead into a concert hall. But, you know, 1/10th the price. It's a bit too early to say how this holds up long term - I'll come back in a while with more to say, but for now I am completely surprised in the best possible way at this. Even if you just like the look of this and want to hang it up on your wall, you'll be happy with this, but I believe this will be a great instrument to learn on.

The media could not be loaded. Extremely beautiful instrument, I absolutely love this Guqin. It’s a lovely reddish brown color that slowly ages to Black. It’s extremely well made it has sturdy strings which is very important when playing. Although I have never personally owned Guqin many of my friends of Asian dissent did so I happened to see some growing up. They took classes is various classical instruments. I always wanted one since I was a child. I believe this Paulowina Guqin is perfect for a true beginner like myself as well as a great travel Guqin for preforming. It has a soft yet powerful sound that carries well throughout a room. I also recommend getting the Fuxi style they seem to be the most popular style on YouTube it would make it easier to learn if you have the most popular model. I also recommend buying the hard case that you see in my photos and videos.

First of all, I'm super impressed with the customer service provided by the sellers. Any time I had a question, they would answer me very fast. My guqin was supposed to arrived between March 2nd and March 28th and it arrived on March 1st. The product was very well packed. It came with a book (in Chinese) a soft guqin bag and tassels to decorate. The guqin is very well build and it is beautiful. It was also super easy to tune and the sound is soft and elegant.

I ordered this beautiful guqin along with a Dizi and waited patiently for their arrival. by the time the expected delivery date had passed I began to worry and contacted the seller and was shocked out how quickly they responded! (almost immediately) The order had some how been lost in transit and they quickly did everything needed to be done to send me a brand new order after confirming it was not placed at my home. My new order arrived MUCH faster than what the original order had said it would take and I am so happy with my purchase. The guqin sounds amazing and I've not yet tried out the Dizi but I know it will also sound amazing! This seller loves music and all other musicians and will MAKE SURE you are 100% satisfied with your order. 10/10 would recommend!

The sound is amazing, and is very soft so you could play to your heart's content and not disturb your neighbors. Beautiful instrument -- play it almost daily. Was at first a little nervous because this ships from overseas, but it was well worth the wait! I'm impressed on how well it was packaged for the trip. I would definitely buy from this seller again.
