No. Thai. Well actually originally from Laos. Now a popular folk instrument of the North-East region of Thailand.
I just designed an instrument with all these ornamental characteristics but I fret mine diatonic or similar.
If you look at the one I made you can tell (I added a 1+ fret). The real Thai Phin that I make or learned to make are pretty much unplayable for any king of western style music.

Apologies! I wanted to thank all the people who commented on my builds.
I did not realize you don't do that here but on the persons site. Newbie mistake, sorry
