So is the ten-stringed piano promoted by the classical master Ye Peisi a guitar? Of course it is. In fact, the "ten-string guitar" is still a six-string instrument, because the four strings added are the auxiliary strings of the six-string instrument, not the strings. The composition of strings means that the interval between strings is greater than or equal to three degrees, usually four degrees and five degrees. This is the best way to arrange multi-voice fingering in it. The auxiliary string is to make the lowest component string continue to expand to a lower scale, thus forming a complete bass harmony. The interval between strings is two degrees or two degrees, which is not suitable for constructing chord fingering.
