This was my Grandfathers...I know very little else about it!
The graphic picture I found on a website, it is exactly like mine.
In the inside it has printed JM Dolnanich, Cleveland Ohio. I wish I knew more on this. Please advise me if you know anything!!
What is this instrument? How old is it?

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Good morning! It's a tamburica like you said... It's similar to a Greek bouzouki (my family has one of these, its cool looking too!), mandolin, cittern. Cleveland was a place were there was a lot of Croatian settlers. There were many makers of this instrument there. It can't be real real old because it was made in the US (maybe 140 years?). I could not find anything on the maker, is the spelling correct?
