A rather tinny steel guitar. I am surprised it did not catch on. The Germans attempted to revive the instrument as recently as l953. Electro-models were made which were fully compatible with guitar amps.
It's not as common as it once was, but yes, you can still buy (and play) a clavichord today.

Most percussion and string instruments operate of vibrations to produce sound. Drum heads, xylophone bars, strings and reeds all vibrate on instruments that use them to produce sound.
No. It sounds much more like a 'hammer on' (just a left hand finger coming down hard on the string/fingerboard). The piano has vastly more string tension (approx. 200 lbs, depending on the piano) vs. the clavichord which has something like 10/15 lbs of tension. Just Google or YouTube for 'clavichord' and you'll find audio samples.
A clavichord produces sound by striking a string with a small metal piece called a tangent, while a piano produces sound by striking a string with a felt-covered hammer. The clavichord has a softer sound and limited dynamic range compared to the piano, which has a wider range and louder volume capabilities.
A clavichord is a keyboard instrument producing a soft sound by means of metal blades attached to the inner ends of the keys gently striking the keys.
No. The clavichord has strings.

A clavinet is a keyboard-like musical instrument, an electronically amplified clavichord with a bright staccato sound.
The piece of metal that strikes the strings of a clavichord is called a "tangents." These tangents are small metal blades that not only strike the strings to produce sound but also remain in contact with them, determining the pitch by their position along the string. When a key is pressed, the tangent rises to strike the string, creating a tone that can be modified by the player’s touch.
my brother play on a clavichord

A clavichord is a keyboard instrument that produces sound by pressing keys that set small brass blades in motion to strike strings. It is known for its expressive capabilities due to the player's control over dynamics and touch sensitivity. The sound produced is gentle and intimate, making it popular for chamber music settings.
An electromagnet drives the stereo speaker to provide the sound.
