A cedar wood, classical nylon string guitar in standard tuning has been prepared by forcing a metal rod on the ninth fret underneath the strings, which creates a second bridge. The strings are then struck with wooden chopsticks on either side of the second bridge, similar to a dulcimer. Recorded on a Yeti Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone in a small room.
