i bought an appalacian dulcimer on ebay. a six string three course model made of koa wood back and sides and a cedar top. it's a lot of fun!it has friction pegs which are fine so i can play at rennaissance faires as well as folk.

i've been trying a lot of celtic ballads, a few fiddle/mandolin tunes, and one turkish tune i found on you tube.

are there many dulcimer players out there still? and what are you playing?
