There's a recent pic somewhere on the Net, showing an African artist playing it by holding the upright pegs next to the neck in the crook between his pinkie and ring fingers on each hand, and plucking the strings with his thumbs and forefingers.
It's a kora. Reccomend you check this record out when u can. http://www.bobbrozman.com/rev_dirtlin1.html
There was a link to download it on that share the music group, but you'll need to search, it was three years ago or so.
