Some Sjowaazheñ instruments include the "guitar/lute", the lyre, and various end-blown flutes. String instruments are usually unfretted except that they have frets at the perfect fourth. | |||

Sjowaazheñ scales are traditionally based around tetrachords or pentachords which divide the perfect fourth into three or four parts. Innovations over the years have led to finer divisions of the perfect fourth in more "sophisticated" music. The octave may be divided into two perfect fourths plus one whole tone. However, in monophonic music, the perfect fourths divided into n-chords may even be stacked on top of each other indefinitely, without regard to octave equivalence. | Sjowaazheñ scales are traditionally based around tetrachords or pentachords which divide the perfect fourth into three or four parts.
