Hi Rick
Thanks!
the tuning can vary according to the song. this is design is based on a traditional Kora though with 7 more string added. the strings are all fishing line. i hope that Gordon will have a recording for us soon.

What a beautiful instrument. Stunning ! How is it tuned and what do you use for strings? Where can I hear this?
