Made from soft meranti wood. The sape has quite an elongated body which is hollowed out and functions as a resonator. The shape of the body looks like a sampan/boat, often called 'the boat lute' in Western countries. Kayan and Kenyah tribes are mainly seen playing such instruments in Sarawak, Borneo. Originally , sape strings were made from the Sago tree but now these have been replaced by nylon strings. This is a 3 string sape, playable though a miniature with proper tuning.
