Le setâr (persan : سه تار) est un instrument de musique iranien dont le nom signifie « trois cordes » en persan. C'est un membre de la famille des luths à manche long. Son origine se trouve en Perse à l'époque de l'expansion de l'islam[réf. nécessaire]. C'est un descendant direct du tambûr, vieux d'environ 3 000 ans, et un parent direct du sitar indien. Il existe des variantes en Azerbaïdjan, au Tadjikistan et en Inde, dans le Cachemire.
