i bet it has great sound.
We sold one of those for around $75 over the summer. I couldn't figure out how to play it either... that is why we sold it.
Very cool! I wonder what it sounds like.
You should take a class! Maybe check with a University that has African studies. Having the instrument is half the battle...I bet it would be fun to play! I've always wanted to learn the strummed dulcimer!
