Yuichi Onoue(尾上祐一) "Kaisatsuko"

Yuichi Onoue plays his handmade musical instruments "Kaisatsuko(回擦胡)".
This is a handmade electric two strings upright fiddle. But it is not performed with a bow. The rotating wheel (which is rotated by my handling) rubs strings and makes sound like Hurdy-Gurdy.

See here for detail about Kaisatsuko.
