As an instrument of [[Arabic,_Turkish,_Persian|arabic/turkish/persian]] music, the qanun has, of course, microtonal cababilities built in, in the form of "mandals" (turkish) or "orabs" (arabic) - small levers that can change the pitch of a string slightly and can be raised or lowered quickly by the performer while the instrument is being played.
