Reposting this tune. It was a poem written by a guy who got murdered in a Gulag for not writing state mandated poetry. I translated it from Russian and made this song.
Zen Jenga - Amerikanka ( American Girl). Ca. 1914

Features a minimalist setup. A J Mascis Japanese Fender JM into an EHX Small Stone (bought from Steven O) into a 5 Watt Fender Champion 600.

I clicked on it just to see the thinline...

Stayed for the whole thing. Interesting playing!
If I was a byrd, I'd be mighty sore every time they shut the door and I don't think I'd sing...

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
The instrument is an electric Saz a.k.a electric Bağlama.

Here is a clearer picture:

Those look very neat. What is the country or region of origin?

@Unicorn Warrior those are Turkish or at least used in Turkish music too. Not to derail the thread, but I recently came about a Turkish band called Taksim Trio, the saz player is quite a shredder. Look them up.
