Turkish Professional Ogur Sazi – Kopuz

The instrument has a bağlama form, but unlike the standard bağlama, its strings are individually placed, similar to a guitar. This feature adds a different tone and chord richness to the music played. The instrument is played without a plectrum, using an arpeggio technique, providing musicians with a distinct playing experience.

Erkan Oğur has also created nine single-row stringed and twelve double-row stringed versions of this magical instrument. This variety offers musicians options that cater to different tonalities and playing styles. Additionally, the instrument uses a non-traditional tuning system created by the musician himself, providing a wider range of musical expression.
