Karinding

The Karinding is a Sundanese traditional musical instrument from Indonesia. It is similar to the Jew's harp and the Dani People's Pikon; are usually made from bamboo and midribs of palm trees. Karindings made of palm tree midribs are traditionally used by male players, and bamboo instruments are used by female players.

Initially the karinding was used by ancestors to repel pests in rice fields, because the low decibel sound from karinding can disrupt the insect hearing.
