Such a beautiful shape that Prichard WV body style with its slope shoulders. I can't understand why it is no longer popular and why none of the larger workshops (Folkcraft, McSpadden etc) use it. I expect that if Jean Ritchie had taken a Prichard to NY in 1953 rather than her Kentucky Amburgey then most modern dulcimers would now be this shape
An absolute beauty!
Gosh I love this!
