11. Sharpsichord

The first unusual and weird instrument in our list is the Sharpsichord. It was created by Sound sculptor Henry Dagg, and is a solar powered musical instrument made up of a perforated barrel and strings. The artist can plug any number of the 11,520 holes on the cylinder with pins that in turn plucks the strings to produce melodies. It is sometimes referred to by its literal name which is pin-barrel harp.
