Hello Friends!

I am an absolute beginner with the mountain dulcimer and am looking for my first instrument. I have a couple of options available to me at the moment and am looking for some sage advice.

Working from a budget, I could purchase a student dulcimer from sweetwoodsinstruments.com and have plenty left for instructional material and perhaps seed money for another dulcimer in the future. Another option is for a custom Folkcraft I have found on Craigslist that would eat up most of my budget. Help this newbie with some wisdom of which is the better starting point.

Thanks!

Kevin
