This is the first reconstruction of an old instrument from 1840. There is just a drawing left made in 1900 by remembrance of an old man. There are no instruments any longer in Neukirch (Saxony / Germany). It is said that Neukirch was a Hummelnest and people built their Hummels by themselves. Listen to the sound !
This is terrific, I only just now found it! Bravo.

This shape is traditional for instruments like "Bohemian Hummel" and "Bavarian Kratzzither". Somethimes there are octav strings in the corner of the bulge

Fantastic sounding instrument. I'm glad you posted in FOTMD or I wouldn't have heard this. A really great tone.
