Hi from Heywood in the good old U.K., buying my left handed Merlin is the best money I've spent on an instrument in years, thanks for this vid on my favourite song. I'll be keeping my ears open for you.also id really appreciate you doing this song in DAD.
Realistically, any song you can play on a D-tuned strumstick should be playable on a G-tuned instrument. The instrument will just be transposed. D, E, F#, G, A, B, C#, D will come out as G, A, B, C, D, E, F#, G. A Bm chord shape from a D chart played on G instrument will sound as an Em. I've posted a number of videos over the past using my Ammo Can stick dulcimer, which is tuned to G four steps higher than the D Merlin. I believe the Merlin in is tuned to the G five steps below the D tuned version. Mine is an octave higher, but all the chord fingerings are the same.
Hello my name is Juan and I'm from Argentina I was wondering what happened to the Google+ group because wen I try to check it out it said that it doesn't exist anymore! Do you know how can I get a little bit more info on the Merlín? I bought mine a while ago and I like to study it more in depth Thanks for the video Peace and music to all
Hi Juan. I believe the group relocated to merliner.co.uk/ once google announced that it would be phasing out Google+. I think that's where you'll find most of that content now.
Alas, Google Plus groups were discontinued a few years ago now. I seem to recall a guy out of the UK converting things over to a website of some sort, but I'm not sure what came of that.

I'll definitely have to revisit this one sometime soon! Thanks for the kind words!
excellent video, greetings from Peru, let's follow the different steps learn more!
You have really figured out this instrument! Wish you would have played a whole song. Wonderful video.
Thanks. I believe I have recorded full versions of this song in the past, though in a different tuning. It really is a fun song!
Thank you for this, I love this tuning your voice sounds great with it! I will definitely check out that google group. Thank you again for this video
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!

Love this. Have you got a patreon page for the Merlin?
Do you know if there's anything for the G tuning? I found a few things but not much at all

Ok thanks!
Good luck and have fun with your Merlín!
Very beautiful sound, how big is the lash to fuse scale?
I believe the scale length is about 20.75 inches. They're really fun instruments to play!
Google plus, seagull merlin M4 group? Just googled and nothing comes up. Help, please.
