Gittith
   a stringed instrument of music. This word is found in the titles
   of Ps. 8, 81, 84. In these places the LXX. render the word by
   "on the wine-fats." The Targum explains by "on the harp which
   David brought from Gath." It is the only stringed instrument
   named in the titles of the Psalms.
