Chadagan

The chadagan is a Tuvan plucked zither. It has 16 strings and is tuned to a pentatonic scale.[1] The number of strings varies, and the bridge is sometimes movable.

Related instruments are the Mongolian yatga, the Khakassian chatkhan (or jadagan), the Japanese koto, and the Chinese guzheng.
