Sape is a traditional instrument used by the natives of Sarawak.It looks like a guitar but the sound is different.It is only played during festives and celebration.This item is made from wood and it is a replication of the real sape.The painting on this sape represents Sarawak culture
Sapes are still being made in Borneo, and modern innovations like electric Sapes are common.
In the last century, as time passed the Sape gradually became a social instrument to accompany dances or as a form of entertainment. Today, three, four or five-string and 6-string instruments are used, with a range of more than three octaves. Most of them are still hand-made.
