    I suppose it's a chinese traditional music instrument.

    OK, I found some note that explains how to use it but it was in Japanese and I'm too lazy to translate everything by myself I used some software that translate everything so it's not acculate and sometimes it doesn't make sense but use your imagination and try to understand it:icon_wink

    To bring the bow close to the body when the bowstring in this side (body side) is played with the hair of the bow narrows between two bowstrings, it makes efforts. To keep away from the body when a bowstring outside (one far from the body) is played oppositely, it makes efforts. Because it is necessary to change the putting condition of the power when a bowstring in this side and an outside bowstring are played because the hair of the bow slackens to some degree, it is difficult.

    And basically what I understand about Jinghu from above it's freaking hard to play!!!!
