 | vina, rudra vina Stearns #1019 | North America Chicago, Illinois, USA | This reproduction Bin was made by Lyon & Healy in Chicago; it has seven strings, a "bamboo" body, and two large "gourd" resonators. The green "gourds" which are supposed to function as resonators that attach to the body of the instrument are solid, and therefore do not perform a musical function. |
