Location: London, UK | Awesome music. I guess that instrument's an alternative to a bunch of reverb/FX boxes.
Wouldn't want to be the roadie who has to string and tune it for the great man. |

Location: Budd Lake, NJ | I think that must be what happens when you take an Elizabethan instrument and expose it to high dosages of radiation..... :D
The concept isn't new, that's for sure--I thought the tone of the instrument left a lot to be desired, though; not too much warmth or mellowness to it. The tone reminded me of an autoharp, which I do like in the right genre, but I expect an autoharp to sound like one.
None the less, my musical education has been advanced, so thanks for the chance to view it.

....but it must be art, cos Moody's P.O.d!
Hat's off to the builder though, imagine the stress...in so many different directions! |
