Do they use the snake skin like others in the huqin family? They might be varieties of gehu. Best wishes, David |

Best wishes, David no it doesn't look like a huqin, but it look like a modern day cello and double bass, but its round like a circle |

Anna, dear. Did you know that posting the same post in more than two topics that do not relate to the post in question is considered spamming? What's wrong with starting a new thread specifically about said topic?
I'm going to delete your other three posts, and leave this one above me here as it relates (marginally) the closest to the topic.
