Thank you Linda for the contact. I just picked up my dulcimer from String Theory which did a fret tuneup. Really ground down all the frets to compensate for the bow in neck. He does not have a dulcimer jig so could not plane the neck. Seem as though that was going to work but minutes ago one of the double melody strings went dead on the 6th fret. Crazy because the two strings are within a 16th of an inch to each other and only one is dead on the 6th fret. I'm sure String Theory will address the issue. Should this problem can't be fixed without removing the fret board overlay and planning down the neck and adding a new overlay fret board, I will look up Mr. Scotten. I also know of a Bill Lawson in Sparta Tn. that use to build beautiful dulcimers and did repairs, he is also a possibility if he is still around. Sorry I did not mean to write a book to your reply. Thanks again and have a blessed week.

Does anyone have any information on someone that does mountain dulcimer repairs in the Nashville Tn. Area. I have a very special dulcimer that has a downward bow of 1/8 of an inch or more in the middle. The neck has a fret board overlay on top which also has some cupping or low spots on outer edge around 3rd, 5th frets . Fret board is to thin to be planed down. The neck will need planning down an 1/8 inch or so and new fret board overlay glued in place, 18 frets, no Strum Hollow on either. no Nut Slot either on board. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
