The tanpura has two types of chords because it can be tuned in different ways to create different sounds: 
 
 
  • Four-stringed tanpura
    Typically tuned to Sa, Pa, and upper Sa, but can also be tuned to Ma and Ni for certain songs. 
     
     
  • Five-stringed tanpura
    Can be tuned to PA-NI-sa-sa-SA or MA-NI-sa-sa-SA. The extra string can create a more melodious sound
