Old 6 string dulcimer
Instruments- discuss specific features, luthiers, instrument problems & questions
A friend of my daughter has a old, very rustic 6 string dulcimer - she wondered if it's tunable and playable. I'm a bit of a novice with the variations of dulcimers, so don't know if this is odd or not. It has six strings, all equally spaced, like a guitar. Is that type of string arrangement common? To what notes should such an instrument be tuned?
