What our customer's say!

"Not recommended", Assembled in Romania using commodity plywood and cheap Chinese tuners, this is an instrument to avoid -- ESPECIALLY if you're likely to develop an affinity for the dulcimer.

While the open strings will tune properly, chords will sound terrible thanks to the assembly-line luthiership. The shoddy nut and bridge, combined with automated fretwork, is a nightmare.

Yes, it is cheap, but beginners will not be able to advance very far, and those with any experience with string instrument will draw the wrong conclusions about dulcimers.

If you are really on a budget and are unsure about dulcimers, even a cardboard --- yes cardboard -- dulcimer is superior to this one. A good cardboard dulcimer is about the same price.

But if you can spend even $125, you can find nicely crafted student dulcimers from a variety of American luthiers.






"Beautiful dulcimer for a decent price.", I received this dulcimer a few weeks ago, and I am quite pleased with it. It is very beautiful, sounds lovely, and is lightweight; the only complaint that I have with it is that when I tuned it in Mixolydian mode (or so I thought), I thought it didn't sound right; however, I'm a newbie, and I didn't tune the dulcimer into Ionian mode before I tuned it into Mixolydian mode, so that might be why. By the way, if you've never played or tuned a dulcimer before, I suggest you tune it to Ionian mode. It's a great first-time mode, and you can find out how to tune it to that mode at many different dulcimer websites.

"Pleasantly surprised", When I first recieved this dulcimer, I was shocked at its light weight, and thought I had purchased something akin to a toy-guitar. However, after learning to play it, and taking lessons, I discovered that this is a very nice, affordable instrument, with a good tone. I would recommend not using the guitar picks that are offered on this site. A better alternative is the flexible dulcimer picks, which make a much nicer sound.

"Nothing arrived but boxes and packing paper it was supposed to be in...", I charged this to my creditcard and within a few days I recieved the package via ups but all it was, was a bunch of boxes within boxes and packing material... no dulcimer ..contacted company numerous times either the line went dead when I called or no emails replies

"Very nice instrument", I wanted a dulcimer for a long time, but since I never played one before and have limited musical (as well as financial) talents to put towards it, I thought well here is one I can afford and if I can't play it, well I can probably get my money back out of it. I also thought what kinda dulcimer am I gonna get for this cheap of money. My expectations were not high. I was pleasantly surprised. The dulcimer is handcrafted (in Romania) made with all solid woods, mine appears to be spruce.

This dulcimer is VERY nice. It is quite lovely actually and it came with a pick and noter devise as well as a limited instruction sheet and a first song. Within 30 minutes I was able to make the song sound actually pretty good, and I have never played dulcimer before,ever. The only thing that this one needed was to be tuned when it arrived. I tuned it according to instructions found over at www.everythingdulcimer.com and it is just lovely sounding. A very nice first instrument.
