Definition

  • One or more strings are stretched between fixed points. The string bearer and the resonator are organically united and cannot be separated without destroying the instrument. The plane of the strings lies at right angles to the soundtable. The strings are attached at different levels to a tall stringholder; their sounding lengths increasing with their distance from the soundtable. The body resembles a spike lute, with a neck bisecting a calabash resonator. The neck curves away from the resonator. Guinea (bolon), Gambia (simbango). (en)
