<p>This resembles a number of Balkan, Central Asian and Chinese instruments, while not quite matching any of the ones I've seen. Most Central Asian instruments are carved from a single block. This may also be true for some South American guitar-like instruments, though they would generally have more courses of strings. </p>
<p>Please, do fix it, string it up, and play it! </p>

<p>yeah...I had thought about that...and may even just do it to have alternative tuning possibilities (did a lot of that on my dulcimers and my 3 to 4 stringers).... but, like you, I dig paired strings! have never played a two stringer either, so this will give me an opportunity to branch out</p>

<p>that is a cool little thing indeed! i love paired strings.</p>
<p>you could always slot the nut and bridge a little so it could be played as a more normal four stringer too... if you felt so inclined. </p>
