Should have been a spiral bound book.
This was my first order. It was simple to do as the website was easy to navigate.
I needed new strings and picked up a capo while shopping.
I will definitely order from here again.
I got my case with my Folkcraft bass dulcimer, which fits great in it. The logo is soooo cute, eye catching for sure. I think best of all is the really big pocket that can fit music or even my 3 ring binder with no problem.
I purchased just in time for one of the Saturday classes. I had not used a capo before and this one served me well at class to get started. Looking forward to trying new things with it.
I have used these picks for many years - and these are my go-to picks for sure!
I am updating my supply since it seems my dulcimers eat them - HAHA!
Seriously - I don't really know exactly what makes these my favorite - but I would be very sad if they were ever not available!
I have seen video clips and heard great things about Mandy. I was not disappointed. She did a great job! Her teaching style and techniques were very helpful for me. I look forward to the next opportunity I have to attend one of her clinics and highly recommend her to other dulcimer musicians.
This dulcimer is beautiful and has a lovely voice. A true work of art. Much thanks to Richard Ash for helping get the perfect string action for me. It’s a joy to play.
Excellent quality of strings, the sustain of the note and its ability to resonate with sympathetic notes is truly amazing.
Another great book from Carol Walker! I would highly recommend this one, it is a great collection of tunes and tab.
I am enjoying this book, It is a great collection of songs and great tab. I would definitely recommend this one!
Mandy did a great job as a presenter. She certainly knew her content, and she was careful to present her material in a way that everyone could understand. She was very open to questions. All in all, a very good workshop.
There is enough variety that every one will find a song at their level. I do wish that they be ordered in level of difficulty, however. Overall, excellent.
Great strings and fast delivery. The roller wound feature really cuts down on the squeak.
