My oma played a zither so I give that a mention for another thing I’ve not heard in nearly 30 years.

But, my serious go to for relaxation is the erhu. I’m surprised that hasn’t had a mention.

Synth.

The tekerő. It's the Hungarian version of the hurdy-gurdy.

Hard for me to choose just one. I love these three instruments because they are so peaceful and calm. Though people do use them to do covers of heavier music as well.

The Guzheng is a 21-26 string zither instrument. I love Zithers in general. There are many types from different countries.

The Guquin is a 7 string instrument.

The Erhu is a 2 string instrument. Part of the huquin instrument family.

I can play this one and doing so has always felt pleasant.

The warm tone of an EP, mostly used in jazz and fusion. Second would be a distorted synth lead, like Derek Sherinian’s signature lead sound.
