its a instrument with a 3d bridge on the middle, dividing the string into 2 half-strings, the idea is to play basically with harmonics.. You play on the side opposed to the pickup on a lap steel or slide fashion, There is a project on a very good book: Musical Instruments Design by Bart Hopkin other info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3rd_bridge best Robert
