          This reminds me of a few things. Misirlou goes way back but the Dick Dale surf guitar version was one of the first songs I learned. Tremolo picking!
          The Mulatar version reminds me of Ravi Shankar playing Sitar at the Greek Theater in LA for a 1967 Love in festival.

            You certainly are finding some unique instruments Steve! This one looks like it’s got some strings on its side like a harp or something. It sure sounds cool. I’m sure you’ve seen a harp guitar but in case you haven’t…

                Those things are scary. I have enough difficulty keeping track of 6 strings. I don’t know how anyone can mentally or physically deal with those extra strings.

                I’m bad enough with 6 strings myself…I don’t need to add more! I can’t even imagine playing a 7 or 8 string guitar, never mind a harp guitar or mulatar.

                  Pretty neat but not any time soon. Too much of a learning curve lol.
