What --other than oud--is played with a risha?

Which instruments are played with the same pick that one would use for the oud?

Hi,

Lauta, and sometimes the Greek laouto, but usually that pick is a long piece of plastic bent in half, very percussive. Can't think of any others offhand. Tanbur has a similarly shaped pick, but it's much thicker, and you play with the thin side, not the wide side (like you're trying to cut through the string).

Take care,
