Thanks, Dusty. I live in eastern Washington state, where we don't get the precipitation of the west side. My weather app says today's humidity is 38 percent.
I keep my dulcimers out of the case most of the time, on display, if you will. Maybe keeping them enclosed is a better idea. I'll look into the Herco product. Thanks again!
Hello! I recently learned that dulcimers can crack if the humidity is not high enough (45-50%) so I'd like to buy a humidifier. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thank you, Kathreen
This is brilliant, Dusty! Thanks ever so much.

Hello, All --
I'm not exactly sure how to ask my question, but here goes.
I learned to play in the key of D, DAA. I now have my dulcimer tuned to AEE. I use the chord shapes for DAA (for instance, a G), but, being in the key of A, the resulting chord is not a G but something else - and I don't know how to make that translation, how to determine what chord it is in A.
I have the opportunity to jam this weekend and am concerned that when prompted to play a certain chord, I'll have no idea what it corresponds to in D to be able to play it.
Does any of this make sense? I haven't been able to find any chord charts that include the key of A.
I'd appreciate any guidance at all!
Thanks,
Kathreen
