When did McNally come out with this bad boy?

Anyone play one? I thought the strum stick was a little difficult to hold, I imagine this little thing is even harder. I think the strum stick had an almost banjo like tone...I wonder if this sounds similar...?

Craziness!
 
Aloha Skitzic,
I even seen a thinner one with just three strings....that must be even harder....
 
I wonder if this could be used as a lap steel.
Steel strings at a reasonable price.

played one at NAMM this last June. It is really fun. Sounds ok for such a small body. The fact it has a pickup makes it really fun

I actually came across and played this very instrument in a local music shop. It was amazingly fun and sounded very much like a dulcimer ukulele.
 
I have one that has baritone (DGBE) tuning. Lots of fun to play, but a little awkward to hold.
I found this sound sample on YouTube.

 
I imagine you'd need a strap on this one to be able to play it at all. It'd be a good eye catcher that's for sure.
