Thread Name: Walmart Dulcimer????
Subject: RE: Walmart Dulcimer????
I did some research on buying a dulcimer from Walmart online. At first I couldn't find it, but that was because I looked under 'dulcimer.' It was listed under 'guitar.' I also searched for banjo, ukulele, violin, and fiddle at Walmart, Costco, and Sam's Club, but I didn't find any. Of course, there are 'musical instrument' categories on Amazon.com and ebay. I remember reading that Sears sold some decent violins during the 30s. If I remember correctly, Maybelle Carter bought an autoharp from Sears. Is this true? Anyway, I don't think I could face Big Mick the Union Organizer or my own conscience if I bought a dulcimer from Walmart.
