Thank you Irene! I have been enjoying playing this one before shipping it soon. It has a sweet tone to it, not sure how to describe it. I would love one like this myself :-)

Wonderful! I have a lacewood dulcimer that sounds (and looks) absolutely beautiful. I am surprised it's not used more often by luthiers. The contrast here with the maple is particularly striking.

Thanks Dusty- it is my first time using Lacewood, ( I am happy I git a little extra LOL ). You are right, it is a lovely wood, and kind-of easy to work with as well.

Thank you Steven! - yes it has a wonderful sound, bright and crisp. These woods coupled well for this instrument.
