Highly popular among electro baglama players in Turkey volume electro saz strings are 0.20 mm gauge and have ball ends. What is an electric (electro) baglama? An electric bağlama is an electrified or electro-acoustic version of the traditional Turkish saz/bağlama lute. Some key features of the electric bağlama: - It has a solid wooden body like a traditional bağlama, but with pickups built into the body to amplify and output the sound. - Most models have multiple pickups to capture the nuances of the strings and allow for separate volume controls over bass and treble strings. - It can be plugged into an amplifier or PA system to be played loudly enough for live performance settings. Acoustic bağlamas have limited volume. - Electric bağlamas allow for effects like distortion, reverb, tremolo, etc to be applied to the sound through amps and pedals. - Many electric bağlamas have equalizer controls directly on the instrument body to shape the amplified tone. - While acoustic in construction, electric bağlamas have a brighter, livelier sound when amplified. The resonance can be enhanced. - Allows bağlama players, like those in folk-rock or jazz fusion, to jam with modern amplified instruments. - Purists debate if electrification diminishes the traditional tones and playing style. But electric bağlamas remain popular for live and recorded music.
