In order to simplify orientation this lyre has red and blue strings to make it easier to find the right string. Both the 7-stringed and the 12-stringed lyre can be tuned in open chords and be used as a drone instrument.
Bordune Due to the many strings, the LDD lyre can be tuned into various chords or bordune scales. In this case you strum all the strings together to hear the entire chord ringing; is used to accompany a melody that is sung or played on another instrument. If you have more than one lyre in a group, they can be tuned into different chords so that you can accompany a song with as many chords as you have differently tuned lyres.
Pentatonic This lyre is the same as the pentatonic LDP model if you change the strings into the pentatonic set. In this way you can use the instrument in a pre-school situation. Includes a tuning wrench and an instruction sheet, with more tips and tricks regarding how to use your instrument.
