This invention relates to a lute comprising a body-shaped sound box and a neck attached thereto. The MEMS apparatus is formed at least in part from an SOI wafer having a first layer, a second layer spaced from the first layer, and an insulator layer between the first layer and second layer. Extensions at the ends of the parallel sides retain the wire from falling off the central body during storage. Optionally, a liquid sensor may be disposed between the inner and outer conductors to monitor the liquid content within the device. The controller is configured to control the motion of the drive system. The first fuse interconnect, the second fuse interconnect, and the first impurity diffusion layer of each of the plurality of fuse element portions are arranged approximately parallel to one another at a predetermined pitch distance.
