The mih from the islands of Rab, Pag and Cres is very similar to the central Dalmatian mih and had the same position of holes on the pipe (6-2). The only difference is that the island mih is somewhat simpler in its appearance; it has a bag, a simple blowpipe (usually made only from reed) and a pipe.
On the island of Rab one can also find mih pipes with the opposite positioning of holes for playing. There area usually six holes on the right side and two on the left side two, while some musicians on the island of Rab use pipes that have six holes on the left side and two on the right side. This does not influence the quality of playing and depends only on the individual preferences of the musicians.
