OH MY GOD... I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS THING FOR YEARS NOW! i think i saw this guy out side of ben and jerrys in san francisco, and i made a not to stop and talk to this guy, but by the time i got back he was gone. Thank you so much who ever posted this!

Lol, they totally aren't fingernails, people. Long fingernails curve downwards.

Beautiful beautiful instrument by the way.

[AraGuitar]

does he carry that thing to the sidewalk every morning?

[transientsmile]

Beautiful. I wish such instruments were more affordable. 

[lakenewell]

I agree with the previous post. Amazing. I wonder why the long curved picks. I notice he runs the curved picks on the strings at times. I guess this give a special sound, like a violin bow or something.

So interesting. Thank you for adding to my day. Well done. I am always surprised at the negative reviews maybe they should realize it's their small minds not the problem with the video.

[BaddaBigBoom]

Bloody hell ! Freddy Dulcimer-Kreuger !

[FaceTheBass132]

How gutted would he be if someone cut all his fingernails?

[Karlfalcon]

I don't think those are his nails. Those are probably ring-style picks/hammers.

[TarisRedwing]

@Karlfalcon there hammer picks and bows

[bman462]

i knew i shouldnt have started biting my nails..

[newwave89]

This guy was just at my school here at UCI. It was very cool.

[dudesons441]

lucky

[donnie1718]

that shit sounds annoying and cluttered.

[Karlfalcon]

Your shit sounds annoying and cluttered.

Go punch an elbow.

[donnie1718]

punch an elbow?

[Ollievarium]

What=s?

[Karlfalcon]

I was replying to a troll.

(I really wish the comments would stack up properly the way they used to. It keeps conversations from getting broken into pieces.)

[kavaldzhia]

Very interesting approach to alternative Bohak cimbalom...

does he ever play in another key or play a melody ?

[rosstilla82]

no...vabè...assolutmente senza parole!

[stevenmiles]

My mamma done told me..dah dah dah dah dah

When I was a baby..dah dah dah dah dah

Ha Ha Ha...yea baby...go baby go!

[Amamkoncahuanquichu]

Yeah that guy is in Berkeley, CA. You can see him often at festivals or even around Xmas time on College Ave. No those aren't his nails, they're like these blunt knives that he makes. It's pretty groovy to see him in person, even though I see him all the time.

[mofokitten]

that´s very interesting! from the video, it looks like he´s "bowing" the strings with those, is that correct? like the friction makes the strings vibrate, like the bow on a violin?

[ordisi78]

Yes, he is bowing them. I saw him play in the street in Berkeley. He can bow and also strike with the "picks" on his fingers.

[turboslapper]

old hungarian gypsy instrument

[PivotBowserfan122]

Hammerhead dulcimer, gotta love em. :P

[kemman85]

Word you are looking for is "hammered". Whether you gotta love them or not, this isn't one. It appears to be a cimbalom, not sure the title spelling is right.

[highart2003]

awesome, looks like some kind of dulcimer

[neo529]

i really hope they're not his nails. lol

[partyhoodown]

It looks like Freddy Krueger

[DiosCaxondo]

wtf? awesome!!

[sborges433]

Fascinating!

[krasnodziej]

you can laughing but he's good

[matrags]

haha..wtf is that?

[meegel]

that guys always in berkley

[vioolman]

wat is dit??

[BaddaBigBoom]

LMFAO at the thought!

Then again, it original. Viva la difference :-)

[nogyogyasz]

????????????

[movielew]

Wow, that's amazing!! I wish I could do that,

(without the really long curly nails).

[soundsculpture]

He's based in the San Francisco area, and what is on his fingers is an invention he calls "Bow Hammers" which slip on his fingers and allow him to tap and bow the strings

[tomorow78ish]

i think he gets some1 to clean it for him or he scrapes it off with his nails...(explains y his finger nails so dirty)

[OscarCB]

hahahaha

[cimbalompit]

hahahaha!!!

[howtomakeaknife]

One of the greatest instruments of the 20th century. Bravo!

[tambalagiu]
