Wow wantitwantitwantitwantitwantit­wantit... but without the calimba. Kanun = swarmandal? Does it sympathetically resonate? Have you reinvented the vina?

Hey, if you have a minute come check out my "heavy metal" guitar.

@profwaldo Thanks for the kind words and support. I just finished watching your video and was blown away by the inventive quality of it. I think it's great when people can look at an object that has a specific utility and turn it into something completely different. Great work!

Hey btw, thanks... right back atcha'. :-)

wow...your improvisation was like a movie soundtrack...a very good soundtrack...amazing instrument you built there ! congrats!

[sirsalamander]

@bad1marius Thank you for the kind words, they are much appreciate. Excellent mbira skills by the way. Are you building those yourself with gourds? Also, consider utilizing contact microphones with the mbira/kalimba. The kalimba section of my instrument sounds great amplified, and using it with pedals is a lot of fun. Let me know if you want any more info on the subject and I can give you some tips.
