gscratchhd Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I am considering a new instrument, and I'm looking for free advice I play mostly 'fiddle tunes' but I do have some more melodic pieces in the repertoire. I would like at least 16/15 or larger and I like the models with extra bass. I'm open to a used instrument thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWL Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I think a 16/15 or larger is a good choice. For fiddle tunes you probably want a dulcimer with less sustain so that you don't muddy the sound. I think this will work well for the melodic pieces as well. A longer sustain is good for ballads and contemplative tunes. I can't suggest a specific instrument, but as you look ask about sustain and listen to the instruments. Ken "The dulcimer sings a sweet song."

Christine Wilkins Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I have a lovely hammered dulcimer for sale, including two sets of hammers, instrument stand, tuner and some music. I am asking $400 for all, including postage. I have pictures I will be happy to send via text. Chris Wilkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim A. Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Hi. If this instrument is still for sale I’d like to see some pictures. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
