This musical instrument, the lamellophone, is also called sanza and is played by plucking the ends of the metal 'tongues' with both thumbs. There are 10 tongues in total, which are of different lengths and therefore differ in pitch. The tongues are attached to a metal frame, which is mounted on top of a rectangular, wooden sound box. Due to its extensive use, this lamellophone has a beautiful, colorful patina.
The sanza is sold without a stand!
