Let me put in a plug for Dusty Strings. There are a lot of very fine individual builders around who will cater to your tastes on harps and Hammered Dulcimers and such, but Dusty Strings is a wonderful and trustworthy operation that makes solid, quality instruments. Their pricing is very competitive and they stand behind their product.I say this as a Hammered builder who has plenty of folks playing my dulcimers, but I never regret not making a sale to someone who decides on Dusty Strings.
