The Hardanger Fiddle 

Or "Hardangerfele" in Norwegian is a type of fiddle unique to Norway, specifically from the Hardanger region. It is very similar to a violin, but has thinner wood and eight or nine strings instead of just four. The four main ones are played and the extra ones, which are set right beneath the other strings, hum and vibrate producing an echo like sound.

It is commonly used for Norwegian folk music.

Why do I feel like there's serious potential to go trancing with drone and or overtone music?

maybe i'm just a little infatuated with hardanger fiddles.

But I've also done some serious spacing while listening to the droning in the Velvet Underground's Venus in Furs, but that was five years ago. Must experiment.
