This custom Folkcraft brand hourglass dulcimer has a solid flamed birch body coupled with a Sitka spruce soundboard which creates bright tone that can project and has excellent note separation. The flamed birch has a distinct wide 'curl' grain. The dark orange padauk accents create a nice contrast which can withstand strumming scratches. Our custom hourglass dulcimer allows your personality to be showcased with the additional custom selections of chrome finished enclosed gear machine heads, three mother-of-pearl fret dots and our circle heart tone holes.
