Seung

Seung

:"For the commune in Cambodia see Seung (commune)."The "seung" (Thai: ซึง; also spelled "sueng" or "süng") is a plucked fretted lute from the northern region of Thailand. The instrument is made from hardwood and its strings (numbering either four or six) are most often made of steel wire. It has nine raised frets.

The "seung" is part of a northern Thai traditional ensemble called the "salaw"-"saw"-"seung" ensemble, along with the "salaw" (3-string spike fiddle) and "pi saw" (free reed pipe).

The "seung" is similar to the "grajabpi" (กระจับปี่), an ancient Thai instrument that is used in the classical music of central Thailand.
