Small guitarlike instrument from the Andean countries of South America about the size of a ukulele, with a delicate tinkly sound almost like a harp, although there are other sizes including the smaller walaycho and the larger ronroco. Charangos are now made exclusively of wood, since the original material, [armadillo shell], comes from a severely endangered animal and it is now illegal to export the instruments made from the animal. However, old [armadillo shell] charangos are legal for export and purchase as long as one has the proper [documentation]. Paul Simon and Arthur Garfunkel brought this instrument to the world's attention because of their collaborative efforts with Los Incas in the songs "El Condor Pasa" and "Duncan".
