Questions tagged [identify-this-instrument]

NO LONGER ON TOPIC. DO NOT USE. IDENTIFICATION QUESTIONS WILL BE CLOSED AS THEY ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTED. For questions looking to identify a musical instrument. Be sure to include enough information (sound clip, picture, video, description, etc.) for someone to be able to identify it.

This tag is the instrument equivalent to the tag. Use this tag if you want to identify a musical instrument you don't know.

Questions should have as much as details as possible:

  • Sound clip where you have heard it.

  • Detailed description (e.g. number or strings/keys, wood/copper, etc.).

Read: What should I do to improve my identification question?

There should be exactly one correct answer — when someone does suggest the correct answer, please accept it, so that everyone else knows that there is no point making any other suggestions.
