Birthing Newness: omstrument #1, by Jack Haas

http://www.omstrument.com/. The Omstrument is a fusion of the harp, guitar, strumstick, longneck dulcimer, and tanpura. Forty-six strings in total. The instrument came to me as a divine inspiration a few weeks ago. I am in the initial stages of getting to know and experience it. This is an inaugural video, so as to introduce the instrument without delay. More to come, no doubt.

om shanti,

If he plays Stairway to Heaven on this God himself would descend upon mankind and bathe us in sweet mana. Conversely should he play anything by Dragonforce, nothing would save us, nothing.

hmm..I am pretty sure that when it's all said and done it's just harp made out of other instruments. Really cool though. To be more accurate you should probably just call it an Omstrument Harp.
