Geoff- YOU WIN!
I'm not kidding! Here it is:

I plan to restring it as a descant lute or mandora. It's quite a lovely
little instrument, except for having too heavy strings. It sounds much
better than the video would make you believe.
I've just restrung the Sellas baroque guitar from the same source, and
this has greatly improved its tone and playability. The design and
woodworking on these Pakistani instruments is very nice, but they put
the most horrible strings and nylon frets on them.
