Electric pipa

An electric pipa is a kind of musical instrument that makes sound using electricity instead of just blowing air through it like a regular pipa. It looks like a small guitar with four strings and a long neck.

Inside the electric pipa, there are pickups - special metal pieces that can pick up vibrations from the strings when you pluck or strum them.

These pickups turn these vibrations into electric signals that can be sent to a speaker or an amplifier. This makes the sound from the pipa louder and more powerful than usual.

So when you play an electric pipa, you can adjust the volume and tone using knobs on the instrument or on the amplifier. This way, you can make different kinds of sounds, from very soft and sweet to very loud and powerful.

Overall, an electric pipa is a special kind of musical instrument that can create unique sounds using electricity.
