Custom Hammered Dulcimer
This dulcimer was created in response to a request for a specific combination of woods and a unique customer supplied image for the sound hole design. The customer chose a redwood soundboard made black, with a curly cherry frame, curly maple trim, cocobolo pin panels and cherry bridges and dampers. The customer also wanted abalone as part of the binding and around the sound hole design.

Great service

I have been building fine custom musical instruments since 1978 in rural Bedford, Virginia. Working alone in a wood shop I designed and built, I have developed designs for ten different acoustic instruments including Hammered Dulcimers, Appalachian Dulcimers, Celtic Harps, Irish Bouzoukis, Guitars, Mandolins, Bowed Psalteries, Zithers, Thumb Pianos and Slit Drums. Each of these instruments can be customized.
