How does it stay in tune?

The bandura is a Ukrainian stringed instrument. I came across a bandura at the Ukrainian Museum in Tremont while doing a story for ClevelandPeople.Com.



As a (garage-band) guitar player, I know it can be difficult to keep 6 strings in tune. This bandura has 52 strings!

Look for more from the Ukrainian Museum (a hidden Cleveland treasure) coming up next week at ClevelandPeople.Com where we celebrate the numerous ethnic groups that make Cleveland special.

Look for the ClevelandPeople.Com photo of the week too.
