I first heard this guy on an experimental musical instrument compilation called Orbitones, Spoonharps, & Bellowphones ...since then he has added drums & electronics to the mix, but the pencilina is still as it was ...it basically consists of two flat boards that act as fretboards ...one is strung with bass string & the other guitar. Rather than using it as a fingerboard, he has lodged a drum stick into the strings using it as a floating fret. Check it out!
