Uzun Saplı Elektro Bağlama Saz Dest W2
- Sınırlı stok – Gönderime hazır
The Long Neck Electric Saz Baglama W2 is the Dest workshop's flagship effects-equipped electric saz — built around a Leslie-style modulation effect that produces the spinning, swirling sound previously only achievable with an external Leslie cabinet or chorus pedal. Plug in, switch on, and you have an instantly stage-ready signature tone.
What the Leslie effect actually does
The Leslie effect is the swirling, rotating modulation made famous by the Hammond organ. On a saz it adds dimension and movement to the amplified signal — the tone seems to spin between channels, picking up depth from the modulation. It's the kind of effect studio engineers reach for to make an instrument "sit" in a mix without taking up frequency space. Built into the W2, it's always-on (or switchable, depending on configuration) — no pedal, no signal chain, no setup time.
Best for
- Fusion players (Turkish + jazz + world music)
- Performers wanting a unique amplified saz voice without pedalboard
- Recording artists looking for signature timbre
- Studio musicians needing distinctive saz tone
- Live electric saz in modern arabesque ensembles

FAQ
Can I turn the Leslie effect off?
Most W2 units ship with a footswitch or toggle to enable/bypass the effect, so you can choose between clean tone and modulated. Confirm with us before ordering if a specific configuration is critical to you.
How long does the 9V battery last?
80-120 hours of plugged-in use with a fresh alkaline 9V. Unplug between sessions — battery only drains when a cable is connected. We recommend keeping a spare in your case.
Is the saz hard to learn?
Moderately. The fretting system has microtonal koma intervals, and right-hand picking (mızrab/tezene) takes practice. Plan 6-12 months of daily practice to play folk songs comfortably.
Can I plug an acoustic saz into an amp?
Yes if your model has an AMP jack or built-in pickup. For acoustic-only sazs, a soundhole pickup can be installed by any luthier — but for stage use, a factory electric model gives cleaner signal.
How often do I change strings?
Casual practice: 4-6 months. Daily practice or performance: 6-12 weeks. The lower bass strings last longer than the high pairs.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, worldwide. Sazs ship in custom foam-cushioned boxes. You choose carrier at checkout — DHL Express, FedEx, or standard postal. EU/US express orders typically 5-9 business days.
