makes me think of a cross between rabab (because of the 1 string), dulcimer (because of the frets), and cigar-box guitar (because of the can)
i can play the autoharp (aka chromaharp) but i'm not sure how "rare" it is, i also have a "pitched" vacuum tube i created for musical effects (if you send me a pm i'll tell you how to do this properly), i play the vibraslap they're not very rare but hard to find in real life, agogo bell.
i'm thinking about making some harps but i'd need to buy some tuning heads, some wood, and a finish plus i need to decide what kind of strings i'd want for it how many etc... truthfully when you think about designing a custom harp is actually quite easy unlike a guitar or other instrument.
i'm really wanting an Erhu (whiny chinese fiddle), Suling (easy to play indonesian flute 14"), an accordion with keys not buttons, a portable organ (say one cheap on ebay but i lost the auction)., and hundreds of other instruments.
