Made in Mexico by a family-owned company that has been making high-quality musical instruments for three generations.Includes 12 songs, pick, tuner and spare wire. Comes tuned for immediate enjoyment! The Logo on the Music Maker is Cyrillic, the Russian alphabet. Phonetically pronounced, it sounds like "Pyer-uh-puh-losh-ka." This is the name of a small, sweet-singing bird that lives in Belarus. This little bird only sings its song when it flies high in the sky. People hear its song, but due to the bird's tiny size, cannot see it. To people below it's as if the sky itself were singing. When factory workers first heard the Music Maker's sound over a hundred years ago, they decided to name their instrument after this little bird.
