Nice!

 

Spencer- assuming he"s the Dude on the left- played some chords with some serious stretches in there!

 

Roshan"s instrument has some studs along the fingerboard. Anyone know what that"s about?

I am pretty sure those are autoharp tuners and the instrument has sympathetic strings like a sitar or sarod. Beautiful sound, sort of a build in ambience.

It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

It's a Mohan Veena, also called Chatarangi. Yes, those are the tuners for the sympathetic strings. It's a relatively recent instrument in Indian music, pioneered by VM Bhatt. Like a sitar it has melody strings, drone strings & sympathetic strings. Great ax.
