The easiest is to send an e-mail to the Webmaster at lawyer@brettweiss.com. It will be forwarded to John right away." he has invented some pedals so , like a iano, the tone can be changed. he is an excellant and inventive Hammered dulcimer player and teacher. i think he has a book, tape and/or c.d. of H.D. lessons |
