Ukelins had two sets of strings: one set of sixteen melody strings tuned to C, and four sets of four strings each, tuned to four-note chords. The chord strings were plucked with one hand, and the melody strings were played with a bow by the other. They were initially produced by the Phonoharp Company of East Boston, Massachusetts, and sold by door-to-door salesmen.  ]]></termNote><termCreatedDate>2026-03-30 21:00:53</termCreatedDate><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31395432</termId><termName>ukelin</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>BT</relationType><termId>31425367</termId><termName>psalteries</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation></term>  </Zthes>
