Tom,
I think you can order them from a mail-order catalogue company "Lark In
The Morning" which specializes in all sorts of oddball folk instruments.
Also, check with the House of Musical Traditions in Takoma Park, MD (near
DC). I am curious, tho, why anyone would ever want to play one of these
beasts. The only use for them is to play Transylvanian (sp?) dance music and
there is precious little call for that outside of Transylvania.
