Summary/Abstract: Baglama/saz, one of our ancient folk music instruments performed in almost every region of Anatolia, stands on a significant point in teaching and transmission of our traditional music. It is known that the baglama/saz instrument, which has varieties such as Meydan, divan, tanbura and cura and is generally produced from mulberry tree, is begun to be structurally produced by alternative production methods in addition to the traditional ones. Comparison of these alternative production methods with traditional baglama/saz production methods proves for certain that this instrument has a dynamic line and that the potential of this instrument in this sense is open to new sounds. In present article, the historical adventure of baglama/saz and the music culture of Tunceli region are briefly explained and the process of baglama/saz production as well as the questions whether there are alternative/experimental studies in the production of this instrument and what kinds of searches there are, if any, are discussed.
