This rare Knutsen harp guitar has the strange sypmpathetic strings in the pick guard position. The original Knutsen label is inside; it has illustrations of some of Knutsen's instruments. This instrument plays easily and sounds great; however, I haven't figured out what to do with the six short strings.
