A quick guide on how to tune a Pontian lyra. A number of people have asked me to do a video on this. So here it is. I A Pontian lyra can be tuned with various different notes. I like G-D-A where G is the Zil chord.

  • What notes have you actually tuned each string to? This video is not helpful.

  • @amullinder If you had half a brain you'd find an online tuning site and it would answer your question. I'm not here to spoon feed you. Now beat it twerp.

  • and now you can make a video how to play the pontian lyra =)

  • That's in progress :)

  • Nice,you created a video telling how to tune the lyra,without telling how to tune it.....

    Guys, it is B-E-A ....this is the basic tuning. ^^^

    (gapan,middle,zil)

    if you want you can tune it else.this would be like: A-D-G , C-F-A# , C#-F#-B etc .....

  • hello pontios23 , do you know were i could find a lyra bow? also what are they made of horse hair? please also include prices. thank you...

  • is this AEB??? B is pagan? or GDA??

    nice sound of the kemence.

    just let remember to viewers that when you tune it the La string will change after 2 minuts. so tuning precisly will take 5 minuts.
