Your self made instrument has a very rich sound of overtones. I have never played on such an instrument, but I wonder how many ways there are to play it.

...there are many ways to play it: strumming the strings, emphasizing on the flageolets with a metal finger pluck, strumming only one side or both sides together (the different materials of the strings - one side bronce the other steel - produce different timbres of overtones that sound together)...
