she's back!
Last year I had to sell my Leaping Deer Dulcimer to make some bills, and sent it off to a new home at a reader's house. But this month I got Craggy Mountain Music to sponsor the blog and instead of payment via cash, we bartered for this little girl. Such a beautiful tone, and what could be more CAF then a mountain instrument with antlers!I have only every played TK Obrien's dulcimers. Craggy Mountain Music is his site, and I highly reccomend, I have long before he agreed to support CAF.
You'll see more in the Dulcimer Webinar! Coming real soon! Got 15 more minutes filmed this week!

That is awesome! I love barters.
Sweet-you must be pretty good about swinging a deal!
And what a beauty she is! My Dad made one many years ago but sold it to someone local before I could tell him I wanted it. Dang! His joy was in the making of it.
Out with the TV, in with the dulcimer! It's going to be a very happy new year for you, I can tell :)

Congrats Jenna! What a lovely piece of craftmanship!
still wish she would put her dulcimer lesson on a single dvd-oh well- back to the dulcimer web sites
oh she's lovely. now you've got me browsing the dulcimer site. i've been wanting to try and learn the mandolin (even though i haven't really played an instrument since i was in grade school), but maybe a dulcimer would be more approachable? if i do, i will definitely be checking out your webinar.
What a beautiful instrument! I grew up playing the flute and the piano but was too much of am outdoorsy girl to be kept inside practicing even though I loved them both. Yes, I know the flute is portable but really it suffered its fate when I got braces. Impossible to play a wind instrument with a metal mouth! So, for years, I have wanted to play a string instrument. And guess what Santa brought me this year? A guitar! I'm SO excited and thank your posts in a big way for encouraging me to stop thinking about it and just do it. I'm especially excited my children will grow up in a house with live music as both my husband and I did. So, thank you for the inspiration!
I just ordered mine from Craggy Mountain! Thanks for the suggestion. I can't wait to get it!
Thanks for the recommend! Learning to play the dulcimer is high on my to-do list. They're so beautiful - in sight and sound.
Holy cow. I placed my order with Craggy Mountain late last night, and I just got notice that it shipped today! I guess I'd better sign up for that dulcimer lesson!
Love it when things work out so well! That's a gorgeous instrument.
