Mountain dulcimer

“The dulcimer arrived in Alaska this afternoon….. safe and sound! I plugged in and have been both flatpicking and strumming it. I truly love it Ray…… sounds warm and wonderful. It is so beautiful and different from any other mountain dulcimer out there. The pyrography, inlays, soundholes and other creative details truly make this instrument a work of art as well. My unique “Blue Moon” dulcimer:) I love everything about it♥️. Thank you Ray, you do incredible work!”
