Veena Musical Instrument
Veena, also known as Vina, was a type of stick zither with the fingerboard stretched between two gourds, but it underwent structural changed in the 17th century. The modern Veena instrument is a kind of lute, with a hollow neck attached to a large hollow body and a soundboard made of wood. It has a softer, sweeter tone than the sitar and is the principal instrument of classical southern Indian music. The Saraswati Veena, Rudra Veena and Vitchitra Veena are featured.
