An instructional video by Pejman Azarmina on how to tune a santur using a chromatic tuner. Language in Farsi. To tune semi-flat (koron) notes, please calibrate your tuner to A 427 Hz.

WARNING: Tuning the santur for the first time and beginners bears the risk of cutting off the strings (especially the brass strings). It requires lots of practice and high quality strings to minimize that risk.

  • @firefly7927 I am glad to hear that you are interested in santur. I don't know much about current santur price range in Iran and you have to ask that question from different shops and santur-makers. A high quality santur should cost no less than $1000.

  • i am interested in buying a santur and was curious what is the price range? how much is a high quality santur?
