    When I was little, Dad made a dulcimer. He got it all ready to to and took it to Mamaw. Nobody has ever been happier with something and gotten more use from something than that dulcimer.

    Beautiful! What a beautiful sound! I miss the days when I was a young girl and my family would gather together. My uncle’s and cousins would play guitar, banjo, fiddle, the gut bucket bass- and sing the old songs. Good blue grass music. It’s a lost art. Which is sad. Wonderful good old time music 🎶 God bless you Mr. Laws.

    My dad played banjo, dulcimer, and guitar and sang tenor in a blue grass gospel band back in the early 80’s.
    Takes me back to being a kid listening my dad play and sing. He had his thyroid removed and it damaged his vocal chords and the death of his mom and then his sister took the music out of him. But last time i visited he sang some with my daughter and that made me smile. I’m working on getting digital versions of his band’s audio tapes so i can upload them to you tube

    I love the sound of dulcimers too. Mom bought me one and I took some lessons from the maker when I was in high school in the 70's. It looked very similar to the one your friend has. I sold it to someone who wanted to learn to play one a few years back as it deserved to be played and I hadn't played it in years. Thanks for bringing back some good memories.

    Howdy Donnie- I love the sound of them dulcimers. Was at Mountain View Arkansas not long ago and went in a store where they make dulcimers. They were getting ready for a big dulcimer convention. Lots of really good musicians live around there. Hope you have a blessed weekend. God bless

    Thank you for sharing the dulcimer story! I have a dulcimer and can only strum (not chord) it but love the pure folk sound it makes. Mountain View, Arkansas still has a shop that crafts and sells these unique sounding instruments.

    Yes, they do have a unique and beautiful sound. You can pick that sound anywhere❤ Your friend's dulcimer is lovely. They are said to have been derived from European instruments but I dont know which specific one. Maybe a bunch of them. I've said before I have an Appalachian mountain dulcimer but I can't really play it. My daughter's father is a musician and that's one of the instruments he plays. Celtic music mostly. I love the hammer dulcimer too.

    So many people think very poorly of us due entirely to Hollywood. Those Hollywood people don't know their left from their right. Now, that's NOT the expression I was taught; but, it is a family friendly interpretation of it.

    The Hammered Dulcimer is used in Irish music. It is played by striking the strings in a percussive manner. Another beautiful sound. Search 'Hammered Dulcimer Ireland' on youtube. Best wishes from ireland
