Sarod:
Indian stringed instrument of the lute family of musical instruments, widely used in recitals of the classical music of Hindustan. It is a squat instrument with a wooden body and bowl covered in parchment and with a short neck that holds a steel plate fingerboard. A small metal resonance bowl is attached under the fingerboard's top. The instrument has 4 to 6 strings for the melody and several strings to carry the drone (constant tone). It also has a set of sympathetic strings, known as tarab. Plucked with a plectrum, or pick, the sarod produces a powerful, vibrant sound.
