The channel popped up randomly on my youtube feed, so I watched a few of the videos. Here is one...definately not bluegrass or old time, but a nice rendition of a popular tune See You Again Appreciate the musicianship. Pretty tune. Very talented young lady.
When I looked up the name of the instrument "Guzheng" I saw some sites called it a zither. A bit of a stretch to call it a zither, based on what I understand a (UK) zither is/was. But it has strings, and is played with picks. Interesting...picks are taped on the fingers.

"Zither", like "lute" can be used narrowly for a instruments of a specific type, or more generically for instruments of a broader category.
