It was given to me as a gift, so I don't know too much about it. I've looked for the maker's information, but there is no phone number and the store is based in Tennessee. SO, if anyone has any experience with unusual instruments, feel free to chime in!

Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
Details:
- The strings are steel, as far as I can tell.
- The store it comes from sells a lot of Appalachian dulcimers, though this does not look like the photos of these that I have seen. I suppose it could technically still be one (with a differently-shaped body), but I'm a little dubious.
- It is tuned like a ukulele. This part, however, I'm not sure how to weight, as I know there are lots of other instruments that can be tuned like ukuleles (e.g. banjos).
- As the picture shows, there is no sound hole, and the back is also open rather than closed, though there are sides.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
