Tenpins the source of old music-maker (7)

I believe the answer is:

spinnet

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'old music-maker' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'tenpins the source of' is the wordplay.
'the source of' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tenpins' anagrammed gives 'SPINNET'.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
