Description: |
| Improvements to patent 5,164, which covers an instrument they call the "hilleno". It is a keyboard instrument that uses tuning forks rather than wire as the sound-producing component. The idea seems to have disappeared without a trace: searches on "hilleno" produced zero matches other than references to the patents. |
