It’s a rather lazy Sunday, so here comes a second photo already:

This is a bulbul tarang, a traditional instrument from Punjab¹. The seven strings are tuned in unison, sometimes in fifths, and to change the pitch there are typewriter keys mounted.

You can hear its sound in the opening bars of my song “What Isn’t There” (https://babumenos.bandcamp.com/track/what-isn-t-there) on the right side of the mix (to the left, there’s a Thai sueng, ซึง, photo coming soon).
