Hey Anonymous, There's a sister Martin uke in the black case above the Psaltrie. It's a 20's O and looks just like the one in your link. Except mine has a stamped logo on the back of the headstock. It's my best uke with such a sound! Also in the tweed case right to its left in a new Martin 0 make in Mexico. It sports a composite neck made of contrasting wood laminated. It has a great sound also, but not as good as the antique.
You got that right Bluesheart. I bet you have a few harps too. They're smaller, i know... The psaltrie sure sounds beautiful. Yanis has two bows for it and she can get some great tunes out of it. I'm sure glad she likes music and it's healing therapy.
