The open string was tuned to 182 vs. The string was made of twisted Wazi bark, it had a small friction pad of Ilala palm leaf (koko) wound onto where the reed bow (uta) was applied to the string. A loop of bark string was used near the Mtowo peg for fine tuning straining the string downwards the Mpini neck. The goat skin membrane was pinned onto a carved wooden bowl with a sound hole cut into its side. Lament, with 1 stringed Karigo lute
