Descripción
Single-string zitherlike chordophones with a slender, three-sided body made of thin boards tapering to the top, and a unique bridge, one of the feet of which does not rest on the belly of the instrument but is suspended a hairsbreadth above it, so that it drums rapidly against it when played. Common from the 15th to the mid-18th century.
