The hualaycho (called walaycho in Bolivia) is a small charango. Most of the time, it is played kalampeado: by strumming, not picking, the strings. This instrument is also known as chillador, for its sound. The hualaycho is also called the charango diablo (the devil charango) when it is tuned in diablo style |
