A buzuq is a mandolin-shaped lute of Arab origin, with a long neck, movable frets, and two or three strings, played with a plectrum.

How is a buzuq held?

Buzuq is typically rested on the right knee, with neck slightly uplifted. This enables the right hand to be in the best position for a tremelo with the pick -- normally a very thin one, such as is used with a saz. Thumb of left hand is perpendicular to the neck (if well positioned). The base of the instrument also can be cradled between the knees. As an ancestor of the guitar, like the oud and the bouzouki --- the position of the base is a matter of taste, region and culture. Positioning changes sound emitted from the base through the sound hole. For the best position, look for images of Jihad Racy, the master of the buzuq --jonathan
