Concert Quality Divan Saz SDS-403

Concert Quality Divan Saz SDS-403

The SDS-403 Concert Quality Divan Saz is a professional Turkish string instrument made for musicians who want the deep, powerful character of a traditional Divan Saz with the clarity and response required for serious performance.

Built with a mahogany bowl and neck, a Canadian cedar soundboard, and ebony tuning pegs, the SDS-403 combines carefully selected tonewoods with the large body and long scale associated with the Divan Saz. The result is a rich, resonant voice with strong bass response, clear articulation, and plenty of projection.

A Powerful Traditional Divan Saz

The Divan Saz is one of the largest members of the Turkish bağlama family. Its longer scale and larger bowl give it a deeper and more commanding sound than smaller bağlama and saz models.

With a 112.5 cm bridge-to-nut length and a 49 cm bowl, the SDS-403 is designed for players looking for the unmistakable depth and presence of a full-size Divan Saz.

Its broad tonal range makes it well suited to Turkish folk music, Anatolian music, traditional repertoire, ensemble performance, studio recording, and solo playing.

Selected Tonewoods

The SDS-403 features a combination of woods chosen for both tone and durability:

• Bowl: Mahogany

• Neck: Mahogany

• Soundboard: Canadian Cedar

• Pegs: Ebony

• Bridge to Nut: 112.5 cm

• Bowl Size: 49 cm

The mahogany construction contributes warmth and body to the instrument's sound, while the Canadian cedar top provides responsiveness and tonal detail. Ebony pegs offer a durable and traditional finishing touch.

Made for the Serious Saz Player

A Divan Saz should not simply be large—it should remain responsive, balanced, and expressive across its range. The SDS-403 is intended for musicians who want an instrument capable of delivering both the powerful low register of a Divan Saz and the definition needed for detailed melodic playing.

Whether you are performing traditional Turkish music on stage, recording in the studio, or adding a professional Divan Saz to your collection, the SDS-403 offers the dimensions, materials, and tonal character expected from a concert-quality instrument.
