Swedish/Danish Humle (Hommel)
$ 695.00
This is a large mountain zither with a big sound. It is distinguished by one flat side edge and a wide curved edge on the other side. This instrument is unique in that it has eight strings: four running over the fretboard (including a bass string), and four unfretted drones (including a bass string), enabling full chording on the fretboard together with full drones. This capability produces a very traditional and highly resonant sound.
The black walnut back displays a beautiful 2" diameter decorative wooden inlay, and the Western red cedar top includes a delicate handcrafted wooden "lace" rosette. This instrument is tuned with zither pins and comes with a wrench.
Specifications:
Standard with a 6½ fret. Contact us if you would NOT like a 6½ fret with your instrument.
