zither a European instrument, somewhat like a harp, but with the sound board under the strings. It's plucked like the autoharp, but includes a small fretted fingerboard for the melody, while the accompaniment is plucked on the main strings. Its claim to fame is being the lead instrument in the "Third Man Theme".
