My oma played a zither so I give that a mention for another thing I’ve not heard in nearly 30 years.

But, my serious go to for relaxation is the erhu. I’m surprised that hasn’t had a mention.

Uilleann Pipes

As heard on Bryan Adams, When You Love Someone.

The tekerő. It's the Hungarian version of the hurdy-gurdy.

Synth.

Fight me.

Hard for me to choose just one. I love these three instruments because they are so peaceful and calm. Though people do use them to do covers of heavier music as well.

The Guzheng is a 21-26 string zither instrument. I love Zithers in general. There are many types from different countries.

The Guquin is a 7 string instrument.

The Erhu is a 2 string instrument. Part of the huquin instrument family.

Harpsichord. Below the streets of St Paul in (that) London.

If you know, you know.

Agree on music box. For me, it's also violins.

Ukulele. It's so easy to play, C is just one string! And they're small enough to take in your carry on if you travel. I own 5...

The warm tone of an EP, mostly used in jazz and fusion. Second would be a distorted synth lead, like Derek Sherinian’s signature lead sound.

I can play this one and doing so has always felt pleasant.

Frickin haunting
