@CaladriaNapea No it's not, it's a tuned percussion instrument.
Compare a glockenspiel to a hammered dulcimer, and you have to say that they're both essentially similar, and thus both percussion. Then comparing a hammered dulcimer with a piano, they're almost the same.
A percussive instrument is struck, whereas a string instrument is stuck or bowed. Some can be used both ways, such as a guitar for example.
It is quite cool though, how a piano is percussion and harpsichord is string...

@my1972stang Actually, the piano is a string instrument . . . as exhibited by its having strings (it's pretty much a harp on its side).

A beautiful and sexy piano player with an English accent, and I thought I was strange.
