Jouhikko

This instrument is totally awesome. This is Emilia Lajunen showing Bau and I how the Jouhikko works. I totally want one!

    You can purchase one from the Kantele SHop, as far as I know. http://www.kantele.com Costs $225 IIRC, made in Minnesota. I own one of his 10-string kanteles and I can say with confidence that he makes excellent instruments.
