Pine and larch aren't the same tree. I don't feel comfortable changing this article myself, because I don't have the proper expertese in Tuyvan lutes to know if there are doshpuluurs made from both pine and larch, but this probably should be changed.

Changed it to pine or larch; both woods are readily available in the region. Also removed 'cedar' as that is a mis-translation of Russian 'Kedr' (Siberian Pine Pinus sibirica) - MPF 13:26, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
