Pickup

Thinking of adding a pickup for amplification to my hourglass Folkcraft.  Recommendations?

One and One Half Fret

Very good observation. Thank you. I've pretty decided at present that it's a feature I can live without.

I continue to hear about 1 and 1/2 frets on dulcimers. My older dulcimers do not have this feature, though both have the 6.5 fret. Just wondering if this is a coveted feature on a new dulcimer. Since I am likely going to purchase a McSpadden, is this an available feature? Thanks in advance for the information.
