Already strung and ready to strum -- Excellent set-up and ready to play -- Has a truly sweet tone -- Pure and Crystal

This is the original hourglass shape. It's one of our newest models which we've found to be an excellent choice for professionals or amateurs. This is one of the easiest instruments to learn to play, yet can also be as challenging as you'd like to make it. This exquisite, handmade work of americana art is signed by the maker. It's fully strung and ready to play.

The Dulcimer is the easiest of all stringed instruments to play. A traditional North American folk instrument, it has a very woody sweet sound, with beautiful rural overtones. Once you've learned a few tunes on it you'll see quickly how it brings back fond memories of mountains, wood smoke, peaceful and quiet living. One of the easiest string instruments to learn since it's next to impossible to hit a sour note... Makes a great conversation piece and wall hanging...A true work of Americana Art! Your satisfaction is guaranteed!
