Its good to see this video. I bought one 5+2 string ravanhatta from same guy in april 2008. I couldn't resist its sound. It sounded like there is some cheap radio inside this coconut shell. Reason i searched videos about ravanhatta was because my instrument is off tuned since i got home and i forgot to record myself this instrument. There is no good information out there how to tune it. So your video is very helpful. Now i will try to make it resonate the same way.
great music ....

Any luck on working out the tuning? I´m in the same position. It´s the small resonating metal wires that I can´t work out.
