Chinese instruments
My dad just got back from China and bought me an Erhu (Chinese 2 stringed fiddle). The bamboo flute next to it I already had. I just decided to throw it into the picture to show off.
Now just learning how to play it.

That's pretty cool. I bought one in Taiwan back in 1958. Learned to play the Marine Corps Hymn on it, until the rest of the guys threatened bodily harm! (Maybe it was me, but it sounded pretty screechy!).
