Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center
Once Schulz christened him Woodstock in 1970, the bird gradually developed a personality. Schulz didn’t think out this new character, with a plan for his development; rather he gradually saw the possibilities this “extra” provided, and once named he provided more and more opportunities, which Schulz exploited.

The Tritare
The Tritare is a Y-shaped guitar-like instrument, custom made by Claude Gauthier and Samuel Gaudet. The strings twist through three necks (Spinal Tap, eat your heart out), all of which project from the body of the instrument at different angles. When strummed, the result is a "network" of vibrations that yields a sound somewhere between that of a regular guitar and a gong.
