Subject: RE: Stringed Instruments: Shapes and Tunings
Actually Arne, there are two groups of zithers....long zithers and board zithers. You're new here so you've missed all my bad jokes about Autoharps. We tend to use the word "harp" for a lot of instruments which are not harps at all and often bear no relationship........but the word sounds so good. I mean like who the hell would buy something called an "Autozither?" Just sounds nasty don't it?

Yeah, let's get all the "Automatically Chorded Board Zither" players together and wank out a little "Wildwood Flower."
