About Strings Cathair Fóillíochta

Is cathair fóillíochta é Strings atá déanta as feadán miotail lúbtha. Tá dearadh spreagtha ag téada ceoil, agus tagann na feadáin líne-chruthacha le chéile leis an imlíne sheachtrach fáinne-chruthach, ionas go bhfuil tús agus deireadh leis an bhfoirm. Is é an príomhábhar ná cruach dhosmálta 304, atá crua agus frithsheasmhach in aghaidh creimeadh, rud a fhágann go bhfuil an chathaoir oiriúnach freisin le húsáid amuigh faoin aer. Múnlaítear an cabhail trí ghearradh, lúbadh, téamh, síneadh, táthú agus snasú. Leanann na cuair staid shuíocháin an choirp. Oireann an chathaoir do léitheoireacht, d'ól tae agus do scíth a ligean.
