The instrument was originally a simple large stringed fiddle (a musical bow) made with a long stick, one or more thick gut Strings (music), strings, and a pig's bladder, pig's-bladder resonator. It was bowed with either a notched stick or a horsehair bow (music), bow. The folk instrument was historically played by "wandering musicians" and beggars up to the early 19th century.
