Ed ... I really apologize for such a late response. I just saw what you wrote. Thank you for the kind offer but what I ended up doing is shipping my Tom Yocky dulcimer back to Tom and he made the adjustments so 'LadyHawk' now is a baritone. :) It's sure a change to feel the thicker gauge strings .... it's taking some time to adjust. Again, I truly apologize for not responding ... I haven't checked in for awhile. You pics are very nice... you do lovely work. Let's stay in touch Ed. Barb
Thanks for the welcome, Ed. I find that I, too, check this site before facebook--I'd rather not check facebook at all and just stick to this site! I am contemplating building a tennessee music box--hopefully, I'll find some info (I am sure that I will find that and a lot of other info and enjoyment).
Hi Ed, great to have you join us here on FOTMD! :)
welcome Ed glad ya joined the family..
