“The Old Home Place” 4-String Dulcitar
Size: 35"l x 8"w x 2.5"h Built around a lovely, vintage tin depicting an old Southern Home, complete with faded flower garden in the foreground and white picket fence around the sides, our 4-string Dulcitar consists of a repurposed Maple floorboard beautifully shaped and well-fretted. George placed 2 gold-toned mini sound holes on the face to allow the sound chamber to breathe and a piezo pickup inside to allow the player to plug in. 4 white plastic tuning machines add to the light color design of "The Old Home Place".
