I had a previous entry on an electric Erhu I saw at the Beijing music fair.
I managed to contact the maker to get more information about the Erhu.
Below are some sound files recorded using the instrument:
1. 江河水 Jiang He Shui
Effects: Erhu in Overdrive
10`20
2. 小草 Small Grass
Effects: Wah Wah
2`48
3. 好日子 Good Days
Effects: Mid Pitch Banhu
6`59
4. 良宵 Liang Xiao
Effects: Erhu 二胡音色
2`45
5. 天山 Sky Hill
Effects: Violin
5`01
6. 沸腾 Fei Teng
Effects: High Pitched Matouqin
2`04
7. 花儿为什么红 Why are the flowers red?
Effects: Violin
2`43
8. 天涯歌女 Tian Ya Ge Nu
Effects: Erhu
2`42
9. 草原之夜 The night of the grassland
Effects: Violin Ensemble and Erhu
3`58
The Erhu effects pedal contains 50 over different tones.
The product apparently has won the gold award at the 2nd national traditional Chinese music instruments competition.
Don't think I want to keep inventory so I'm taking pre-orders here.
Interested parties please email me at tansungwah@eason.com.sg.
Enjoy the sound clips! (Though some of them made my hair stand)
How much is the electric erhu selling for?
ReplyDeleteThe price is US$2000
ReplyDeleteI bought an entry level erhu 5 months ago, and i am ready for an upgrade. The higher registers are scratchy, and the volume is not very good. Will it help if I upgrade the strings or the bow. I think this is a good instrument.
ReplyDeleteYes a change in strings and bow will definitely help!
