Description

Simple and easy-to-handle classic Yakut khomus. The sound, on the one hand, is quite beautiful and looks voluminous, on the other hand it is created by the saturation of random sounds that interfere with the conscious use of harmonic overtones. When you hit inwards, the background sounds noticeably increase, but the volume control does not suffer much, although the knee of the tongue can not boast of stability. Producing basic sounds and various unusual special effects on such an instrument is easy - sensitivity at a decent level and physical effort requires the very minimum. It starting to play even with the light touch.
