Post subject:  Anyone made a Sympitar?

Recently there have been a few musicians down my folk club with unusual instruments with sympathetic strings and I liked the ethereal sound and wondered if I could make an equivalent type guitar and after a few different googles found Fred Carlsons site and wondered if anyone here had built one or anything similar, as I thought it may/or not make an interesting future project.

I've never heard of anyone other than Fred doing this. Studying his instruments, as well as sitars, would be where I'd start.

Jim Worland's site has some pics of a Sympitar Harp: http://www.worlandguitars.com/gallery/0 ... %20HG.html
