Mystery Object (locked version of Original)

Im not cheating, im just trying harder than you! :D

 

Terrier..AndyK..

 

So what is this??????I don't know.
I assume it is a musical instument,but is there something missing?How do you play it?
Does anyone out there know?

 

Rather strange ... by the writing behind I'd guess an Arabic type of Lute which seems to be missing its strings?

 

The Bedouin Rababah الربابه. Played with a horsehair bow, this instrument has a quadrilateral sound box covered with skin and a single string made from horsehair. Capable of a side range of dynamic accents and ornaments, this instrument is the essential melody instrument of the nomadic Bedouins. It is customarily played by the sha'ir, or poet-singer, to accompany heroic and love songs.

There ya' go, the wonders of WWW

 

Thanks Terrier.
Seems the string is missing and a spur to fix it to,just looked on the web,now I know what I am looking for.
Another mystery solved.

 

Terrier!... ...Anybody?

 

Well, it obviously wasn't me with my Arabic type of lute with strings missing, so it's definitely Terrier ... :D

I've got nothing ... surely you have something Pal?

 

Well I happen to have this to hand!

 

I'm back from my birthday lunch. The family has gone (because they know when you are old you need your sleep). I just want to know why there are 2 of them. Why are there 2 of everything? I only had one litre.
