The body is a wooden tube covered with a membrane of mammal skin, open at the bottom. The skin is pegged in a single row above a circumferential thickening of the body wall. The tips of the pegs were trimmed back to wall level. The string support is a straight round wooden stick. A rear wooden peg with an almost square peg head. A cylindrical bridge made of plant marrow. The string of twisted sisal fibre rests on the rear edge of the tube on its way to the end of the peg, to which it is attached with a loop. The bow is an evenly curved, thin round wood with sisal fibre strings knotted on both sides. The upper half of the string carrier is covered in a partly long-haired black fur. ". . . unused;. . . These instruments are usually made by the musicians themselves. This example was made by Aloyizio Wanziti in Magyo/Buvuma. This man also used to play the instrument himself. This instrument does not belong to the traditional Bavuma culture, but was adopted by the Baganda in this century. Today it is one of the most popular instruments on Buvuma, as it is on the Buganda mainland. Players use to sing to the ndingidi at beer parties and other celebrations. . ." from Ulrich Wegner: African Stringed Instruments, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
