Duxianqin (独弦琴, pinyin: dúxiánqín; lit. "lone string zither", pronounced [tǔ ɕi̯ɛ̌n tɕʰǐn]), also Yixianqin (一弦琴, lit. "one string zither"), is a Chinese plucked string instrument with only one string. It is played using harmonics, with the string's tension varied by the use of a flexible rod manipulated with the left hand.
The duxianqin is nearly identical to the Vietnamese đàn bầu, from which it is likely to have been derived.
