Bai Baolin Guqin
Bai Baolin was a famous China zither player. He was born in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province in 1952 and graduated from Xi'an Jiao Tong University. He was the vice president of the Jinling Zither Club and the consultant of the Xi'an Zither Research Association. He was skilled in making zither, and the Dragon's Roar from Withered Wood he made was the most famous. The zither he personally made was called the " Lin Qin." The kylin zither was simple and unadorned, its body slender and long. Its tone was deep, and the lingering sound was distant. Bai Baolin loved traditional culture since he was a child. In the early 19th century, he began to focus on learning the piano and studying the reproduction of ancient guqin. After he started playing the zither, he liked to collect old wood to make Dragon's Roar. If he couldn't get good wood in a few years, he would stop making it for a few years. The guqin was made by the ancient method. The wood of the embryo was naturally air-dried for about 2 years. After the embryo was made, the raw lacquer was rubbed and dry ground and water ground. The total number of times of rubbing was about 50 times, and the thickness of the raw lacquer was 3.8mm. After he finished cutting the violin, he would strictly check the tone and details of each violin. He would rather scrap the violin that he thought was unqualified than let it enter the market. Bai Baolin's zither was divided into the producer zither and the Lin zither. The key steps of the producer zither were personally carved by him, and the Lin zither was personally carved by him. There were not many in circulation on the market, and the zither base plates he made would have his own personal seal and signature. He also participated in the fourth National Guqin Music Competition. In 2000, he was invited to give a lecture on Guqin Art at Xi'an Jiao Tong University.

Sunset Guqin
The Luoxia-style Guqin was a type of Guqin with a unique appearance and cultural meaning. On both sides of the body of the zither, the clouds were undulating, just like the clouds in the sky. The back of the zither was engraved with the name of the zither, the poems of literati, inscriptions, and seals. Judging from the materials used, there were many kinds of Luoxia Guqin made of Chinese Fir, old spruce, century-old Chinese Fir, old Chinese Alpinia, and other materials. In terms of production techniques, there was a pure raw lacquer antler frost technique. In terms of strings, there were generally seven strings. The strings could be divided into steel strings (nylon-coated steel wire), traditional silk strings (made of mulberry silk), and ice strings (said to be synthetic materials that combined the advantages of steel strings and silk strings and overcome the shortcomings of both). Different strings had their own advantages and disadvantages, and could be selected according to their needs. Its size was 123 centimeters long, 20 centimeters wide, and 108 centimeters long. On the price list, there was a Sunset Style Guqin that was priced at 4550 yuan. Different guqin of the Sunset Style also had different performances in terms of timbre. For example, some of the timbre was loose, deep, and strong, with great tenacity, suitable for all kinds of people. For example, the lute of the "Colorful Phoenix Singing Qi" was painted with red paint and had extremely fine ice cracks. The first and second strings were like a bell, the sixth and seventh strings were like a golden chime, and the four strings and five emblems were like a Jie drum.

The history of this zither could be traced back to the Yongzheng and Qianlong years of the Qing Dynasty. It was collected by the famous zither collector, Tang Kai. In 1963, after Mr. Zha Fuxi received this instrument, he invited the Central Conservatory of Music and the Beijing Guqin Research Association to appreciate it.

Guqin Zhongni Style
The zither style of Zhongni was also known as the Confucius style or the Confucius style. The head of the zither was a common square head. The neck and shoulders of the zither retracted into a slanted arc, the waist retracted into a square strip, the neck folded inward, and the waist folded into a straight line. The whole body was simple and generous, and the arc was round and square. It was quite the Confucian way of life. The biggest difference between it and the other zither was that it was very simple. There were only two concave folds at the waist and neck, and the rest were not decorated. There was a song in the straight, and the song was straight, reflecting the Confucian style of the mean. It is precisely because of the simple structure, the sound is elegant and pure, in line with the gentleman's voice. It was said that it was created by Confucius and belonged to the category of saints who made zither. However, there was no literature to verify this statement, but it was appropriate to use the name "Zhongni". This shape was one of the two most widely spread and commonly used shapes. Most scholars loved the Zhongni-style zither because its style was simple and unadorned. It had the air of a scholar, and its voice was neutral and peaceful. It was an elegant sound that was the confidant of most scholars. From the number of production, since ancient times, Zhongni style zither was the most cut. For example, among the more than 200 guqin contained in the "Jin Yu Qin Periodical," the Zhongni style accounted for 80%, and among the 109 guqin introduced in the "China Guqin Treasures," 62 pieces were Zhongni style, accounting for 60%. The Zhongni-style guqin, such as the "Pine of Ten Thousand Gullies" and "Jade Pot Ice" collected by the Palace Museum, were elegant, dignified, and exquisite. Their high notes were ethereal and euphemistic, the middle notes were mellow and beautiful, and the low notes were deep and tranquil. They had the same characteristics as the modern Zhongni-style guqin. In the classification of ancient zither making, it belonged to the sage making zither. Nowadays, there were many types of zither, and zither players were willing to try different shapes, but Zhongni style was still the first choice of literati.
