The article says he was a guitarist, but whenever I have seen Compay playing his 'guitar' it is a special one with 8 strings instead of 6. Is this a
tiple or something else?

The article discusses his instruments under 'Biography'. Guitarist is a general term which covers quite a number of variants, not just the Spanish guitar. What you saw him play was almost certainly the
armónico, which he invented. It actually has seven strings.

Complete disregard to the period between 1959 and 1997
During this long period starting in the revolution of 1959 and until the Buena Vista project (38 years whcih starngely enough are completely omitted from this article), Compay Segundo, as many other prominent Cuban Trova and Son musicians, was forced not to perform and had to work as a... cigar roller! — Preceding
