weegegirl 2 #4 May 26, 2004 I have a charango. Picked it up in Cusco, Peru, a few years ago after hiking Machu Piccu. It's a 10 string, smallish, guitar-like instrument. The tuning is very different, and the rythems are really cool. I love Andean/Inca music. Really fun, upbeat, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
