  • Wait, I don't get it... Not a computer churning out digital notes? Where does Justine Bieber or Lady Gaga come into play here? I just don't understand music played by an actual person with an actual instrument ... --the faceless masses...

  • So memerizing the sound, I must get or make 1.

  • Yep and theres a load of tunes to fit it too

  • awsome instrument, thank uploader! So far i din't know that such a great instrument existed

  • Glad you liked it - one of the tunes is the half hannikin, played in both C major and C minor.

  • join the club mate.

  • What is the title of the tune you are playing. I like it very much and wish to learn it on my HG.

  • I bet you could play black sabbath's NIB on a hurdy gurdy

  • The term hurdy-gurdy was not used till well after the Middle Ages and is derived from an Urdu phrase 'urd- gurd' which means to go round in a circle. It is applied to any device which involves a wheel being turned by a crank. Anyway hurdie is medieval for an arse!

  • i want one so bad
