The smallest and highest pitched member of the string family in modern times is the violin. The Eucolale and mandolin are also pretty small but in terms of pitch it has to be the violin. In the old days they was an instrument called a rebec which was like a violin but smaller. The rebec was very popular with soldiers as could easily be carried in their packs.
