The 二胡

The 二胡
While thinking about different types of musical instruments, I came across the 二胡(erhu). This is a traditional Chinese instrument that has only 2 strings. It seems to me to be a mix between a banjo and a violin seeing that it uses a bow much like a violin, but it has a skin that resonates to create the sound. In fact, it is the skin that makes the sound of the 二胡 unique. The question that I'm currently facing is thus, is it possible to 3D print an 二胡?
