Stick zither with resonator
The resonator is a wide-opening, flat bowl-shaped calabash. The course of the three bast fibre strings [is] unclear. The quill is missing. Between the three fingering points [are] small, pointed extensions of the stick surface on both sides. The innermost handle pin [is] without mirror-image doubling. The other end of the stick tapers upwards. [The knot fixing the cord loop [is] inside the resonator. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue) Main Catalogue: "Musikinstrument Maswina"
