The ghaychak or gheychak (Persian: قیچک) is a bowed lute used in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Tajikistan.[1] The name is similar to the Central Asian ghijak, but that instrument is more closely related to the kamancheh.

Double-chambered bowl lute

A double-chambered bowl lute with four or more metal strings and a short fretless neck. It is used by Iranians and Baloch people, and is similar to Sarinda.

The soundbox is carved out of a single piece of wood. The upper orifice is partly covered in the middle by the handle and the lower one is covered by a skin membrane against which the bridge rests.[2]

In most Balochi musics, it is considered the main instrument and it is only through this instrument that the Baloch musician can tell his inner sadness with the same poignancy.[3]

The most famous musician of this instrument is Din Mohammad Zangshahi from Balochistan.[4]
