Lovely photos and interesting room!
I think its a Yueqin on left and Pipa on right, old Chinese instruments(MrsA watches a lot of Chinese&Korean movies on youtube). Gusle is new to me.
Our visitors from Seattle who stayed with us last week were really into ukulele playing.
They had a carbon fibre electronic model. Also a hand-built by Luthier wooden one. Sounded a bit different to our £40 plywood job. -
Yes, I think so. It was held together with tape.
I don’t know what happened to it, I remember Steve getting it to make some noise, so it was around til ‘fairly’ recently. There was also a really cool wooden flute with some silver keys, but that disappeared too. -

It does look like a Yueqin. I have the purchase receipt somewhere. The other instrument has animal skin covering the body. I will take some closeups of it. I love the ukulele, though I haven’t been playing much lately. I have a tenor and a baritone, and Steve learned the bass so he could play with me, but he has Dupuytren’s contracture in both hands and has not been able to play for about a year. He’s going to have surgery this fall.
