Armónico
An armónico is a guitar-like instrument. It is a hybrid between the Spanish guitar and the Cuban tres. Formally known as trilina , the armónico has seven strings. The third string [D] is doubled.
It was played by the famous Cuban composer/performer Compay Segundo who liked it because it allowed him to exploit the possibilities of both the guitar and the tres.
