[QUOTE="Couch Potato Wannabe, post: 1805741, member: 14066"]Adding to Any Jewelry's list... I believe this set is of Vietnamese instrument styling, yet Chinese instruments are extremely similar, mostly because I am not familiar with an instrument in the Chinese line-up for #6, whereas there is a good match in Vietnamese. From left to right: 1. Yue Qin (Chinese) 1. Đàn Nguyệt (Vietnamese) 2. Xiào (Chinese) 2. Tiêu (Vietnamese) 3. Zheng or Gu Zheng (Chinese) 箏 Zheng or 古箏 Guzheng which literally translates to 古 Ancient 箏 Zheng. 3. Đàn Tranh (Vietnamese) 4. Du Xian Qin (Chinese) 4. Đàn Bầu (Vietnamese) 5. Sanxian (Chinese) 5. Đàn Tam (Vietnamese) 6. Yehu or Banhu (Chinese) - Closest Equivalent though wrong shape and has no frets, these are closer in fact to the Erhu. 6. Shamisen (Japanese) - Closest Equivalent though has no frets 6. Đàn đáy (Vietnamese) 7. Pipa (Chinese) 7. Đàn tỳ bà (Vietnamese) 8. Erhu (Chinese) 8. Đàn nhị (Vietnamese)[/QUOTE]
