Yep - that's Vestine on veena. Harry Manx in Canada plays a custom veena but the sound is nothing like the Fahey/Vestine version.

The first Fahey album I owned. I had been listening to Kottke's "6 & 12 String Guitar" and thought this would have a similar sound. I had no clue. Thanks for posting.

yes Blind Owl (Al Wilson) definitely deserves recognition on this one.
Fahey and Wilson were great friends, Wilson helped Fahey on his UCLA thesis on Charley Patton and Fahey gave Wilson the nick name "Blind Owl"
