Thread Name: Flexi-frets for dulcimer - anyone use them?
Subject: RE: Flexi-frets for dulcimer - anyone use them?
Been thinking for some time if there is a way to have an adjustable fretting system for a stick dulcimer using some sort of eccentric cam system running through the neck and spring? system for the frets...    then you could rotate the neck rod for different fretting/key variations....

If anyone else has been there (after all I'm in the UK and if you mention dulcimers here the best response you get is someone pulling out a pair of wooden hammers!) let me know how successful it was - or any other thought you have

cheers
