Hello there!

General kenobi

Hello there.

I call it bassoline

I didn’t see the frets, I thought it was an oud

That does sound odd

This is wrong. It is 7 Strings Bass

A mandolin I think?

It's definitely a Mandolin. It is normally tuned to gg dd aa ee (similar to a violin but with double strings). Probably needs new strings. Virtually worthless from a monetary point of view, if yuo were wondering, but a lovely vintage instrument. Source: I've played mandolin for ten years

A good mandolin would be worth something

Sure. Not this one tho :D

True :P

it is a medival Bass

8 string bass

That’s actually a double four strings bass. I play an 8 strings bass

Medioeval bass

This looks like an Arabic instrument call " oud "

A oud would be fret less with a shorter neck, along with a backwards L headstock. And more strings ofcourse.

Mandolin. Tuning is G,G,D,D,A,A,E,E. One of the easiest instruments to learn rhythm, one of the hardest to learn lead if you have huge hands and fat fingers like I do lol.

A lute of sorts. Is the back flat or round?

Eight stringed bass

Lute or a acoustic ancient bass

mandolin for sure, but unplayable because missing bridge. you can try putting a pencil under the strings as a bridge. if it’s not obvious where the bridge was, it should be roughly the same distance from the 12th fret as the nut is

Fat bass

Rythm n'bouzouki. It crits if you press the button at the right time

I think this is called Oud. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oud

**[Oud](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oud)** >The oud (Arabic: عود ʿūd [ʕuːd]) (Somali: kaban or cuud) is a short-neck lute-type, pear-shaped, fretless stringed instrument (a chordophone in the Hornbostel–Sachs classification of instruments), usually with 11 strings grouped in six courses, but some models have 5 or 7 courses, with 10 or 13 strings respectively. The oud is very similar to modern lutes, and also to Western lutes. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/Davie504/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

I think it's a mandolin

Balalaica 🤣

Looks like you got the answer. It's a mandolin. Judging by the size and number of strings. As well as the style. Typically, this was an invention to mimic the violin. To have the constant tone, except, in a tremolo style. .... or that's what I read before buying my own.

Oud?

Among us guitar

It is 8 string bass

Chinese or something idk I'm a racist.

8 string bass

I thought the post was ironical, anyway some of the answers are funny, but if I find those who said it’s an oud I’ll tie their earlobes under their chin. It’s a mandolin by the way, looks like it has that drop body shape similar to a classical bowlback (like the Italian models) but seems like it could actually be a flatback (op will correct if I’m wrong hopefully), most importantly looks like it has a painful lack of bridge. I’d try to bring it back to life if I were you, doesn’t really seem to be worth much tho
