Hello, Jasp. Yes, this is an original song and it is a venezuelan rythm whose name is calipso. The instrument is the cuatro, and it is tipical in my country. We call little guitar too.

Ah wonderful! I play guitar and sometimes ukelele, and cuatro sounds like it's in the middle!
Ukelele is brother of cuatro. The stringing distribution and tuning vary.
Yes I believe the strings are two semi-tones higher on the cuatro, but then down a full octave on the top and bottom strings!
