For a feel of the sound: https://youtu.be/R5RMYh-n3LU?si=1gMWzw6l6UxxpiLr Jah Prayzah the guy singing is a renowned musician. They seem to be using the mbira in modernized covers, but the metal pestle order seem the same as the more traditional looking ones. P/S I'm not self promoting the YouTube link. It just shows how the mbira sounds unedited.
