Hello.
Now I have a special question to You.
In Turkish world, are there some differences between Bağlama and Saz?
I have heard, that It is same musical instruments, but I have also heard about Sufi players and Derwishes, who played on Saz.

Hello, Saz is that insturment group name, baglama is that insturment name. So If you say I have baglama, it will more great. But If you say I have saz, they'll ask which kind of saz.
