Harp and Lute
All stringed instruments can be plucked (even piano, if you consider that stringed) If you meant what kinds are only plucked, I would say only harp or guitar. The Harpsichord produces it's sound by plucking, but one pushes the keys, and the keys pluck, so it's a little different.
There are a number of ways that stringed instruments are played. Some are played with a bow, the resin in the strings causing the vibrations. Some use a pick to pluck the strings. Many, such as the harp and ukulele are typically played with the fingers.
They all have: * strings * a bridge * use a bow to produce sustained tones * mostly made of wood
No, the harp is not a percussion instrument; it is classified as a string instrument. The strings are plucked or strummed to produce sound, rather than being struck like in a percussion instrument. The harp's sound is produced by the vibration of the strings, which makes it part of the string family in the orchestra classification system.
For one thing, "string instruments" and "stringed instruments" are not the same. String instruments are the viol family and stringed instruments are any instrument that has strings. The piano and harp both qualify.Now, the piano is a percussion instrument that has strings and the harp is an unbowed stringed instrument.

One thing that string, wind, and percussion instruments have in common regarding the sounds they produce is that they all rely on vibrations to create sound. In string instruments, vibrations come from plucked or bowed strings; in wind instruments, sound is produced by the vibration of air within the instrument; and in percussion instruments, vibrations occur when surfaces are struck or shaken. Despite their different mechanisms, the fundamental principle of vibrating materials to generate sound unites these diverse categories of instruments.

A keyboard instrument, precursor of the piano. The strings are plucked by leather or quill points connected with the keys. In common use from the 16th to the 18th century and revived in the 20th.
