Like No. 290, but the body membrane is pegged with wooden pins trimmed back to wall level. A nailed nut with six string guide notches. Five wooden flank pegs inserted irregularly from both sides into the burnt pegbox perforations. Flattened pegheads. Five nylon strings, four of them in a double-course arrangement. A wooden bridge with six string guide notches. The lower tailpiece is a carved, cube-shaped extension with three perforations through which the three string courses pass. On the underside, all the strings are tied to a common crosspiece.
