Dutar
The dutar is a traditional long-necked two-stringed lute found in Central Asia. Its name comes from the Persian word for "two strings", dotar , although the Herati dutar of Afghanistan has 14 strings. When played, the strings are usually plucked by the Uyghurs of Western China and strummed and plucked by the Uzbeks, Tajiks, Turkmen, and Afghan people.
