Sanhu

The sanhu proper (Chinese: 三 胡; pinyin: sānhú) is a Chinese bowed musical instrument with three strings. It was developed in the 1970s and is essentially a three-stringed version of the two-stringed erhu , with an additional bass string.[1] [2]

The Yi people of the Yunnan province of southwest China play a large three-stringed traditional bowed instrument (Yizu sanhu, sanhu of Yi ) that is also referred to as the sanhu^photo [3] [4], which was developed in early Qing Dynasty from Xiqin.
