Description

Without a sign. 7 melodies and 17 accompanying strings, salzburg-pegboxes zither type. This called the Harpzither type with a battery connecting element. But since the instrument finders have a Hafenzither-type factory-type cyprialgist developed in a 19th century (see Sachs 1913, 179), it may be misleading for a salzburg or salzburg-pegboxes type to use a "harfacitera".
