About the size of the body (bowl) and sound timbre:

Bowl Size and Sound Quality in the Setar
The size and depth of the setar’s resonating bowl directly influence its tonal character and volume. A larger bowl generally produces a warmer, fuller, and more resonant sound, enhancing bass tones and sustain, while a smaller bowl yields a brighter, more focused, and delicate tone with quicker decay. Luthiers carefully balance the bowl’s dimensions with the instrument’s neck and string tension to achieve the signature setar sound—intimate, expressive, and nuanced.
