As stated in title. I'm not sure how one would play the instruments, but as strings for such instruments were commonly made from animal sinews, bushmeat would be an appropriate ingredient, providing both a sink for bushmeat and a new and interesting way to waste away the time.

Not just that, but I think you could implement a process for turning bushmeat into "general purpose string". That is, allow it to be used as bowstring, or general purpose twine for tying packages/hanging things(if drying/smoking mechanics were added, use sinew twine to hang meat, or wrap parcels of dried fruit/veggies/herbs in parchment and tie with sinew string). It could probably even be used in some of the more basic clothing items(like rawhide gear), rather than requiring linen twine.

I have to imagine that some uses for standard twine would be off-limits for string made of offal, namely linen, bomb fuses, sewing kits, and the plumb & square, as I couldn’t imagine those things made from such a material. Bowstrings would be a great use for such cord, though, as would the drawstring that is presumably being added to linen sacks and mining bags.
