Handheld instruments include bagpipes, a small set of chimes, small drums, fiddles and viols, flutes and recorders, small harps, lutes, trumpets, and similarly sized instruments. The GM might rule that an especially large handheld instrument (like a tuba) has greater Bulk. Heavy instruments such as large drums, a full set of chimes, and keyboard instruments are less portable and generally need to be stationary while being played.
Bards can use them as a casting focus. Higher quality Instruments play better sounds, granting a bonus dice (Good = base d4, Exotic = base d6, Masterful = base d8) above Basic to skill checks made with them. Unlike in real life, where using a better instrument doesn't automatically make you a better musician.
