The geomungo is a six-string zither with three movable bridges and sixteen convex frets. It has a hollow body made of paulownia wood. Three strings are supported by the bridges while the other three are over the frets. The modernized geomungo increases the strings and uses nylon strings. The instruments are widely arranged in traditional music from solo performance to an orchestra.
