I think the instrument in the Kipling story was a rajao (possibly sp error). Whatever. It is a small Portuguese guitar-ish instrument that has a fish-like body. The HG is strictly in the movie, and Manuel's musicianship was not prominent in the book. The loud knocks weren't part of the book anyway. You have probably observed that movies based on books usually differ in some details. Oh well...
