YAMATO-KOTO or WA-GON — Plucked Strings. Japan. This is essentially a national instrument and was originally made from six hunting bows tied side by side. The sounding-board is cut at one end by six long notches to perpetuate the idea of the bows. Through these notches pass six heavy cords from underneath the body. To the cords are attached the six strings, which are stretched over six movable bridges to the opposite end where they are fastened on the under side. The melody is plucked with the little finger of the right hand, a drone accompaniment being played with the finger tips and a slip of hard material. Despite the crude construction, the tone is sweet and mellow.
