looking forward to seeing that Tom.

Tom, I can't wait to see that

Good idea. Many of my first dulcimer tunes were ones I already knew for harmonica, but i never really thought of converting tab directly from one to the other. I don't think you would even have to play harmonica to do this effectively. I'll have some free time to add a detailed example to this thread in a couple of days.

Yay Folkfan! Be sure to contact both John Keane and Bobby Ratliff so you can arrange to receive your prizes !

Yippee, I just found out. I've been away from a computer since last week. Thanks so. FOTMD is a prize we all can share.

Congratulations to all of the winners! :)

Bobby Bingham, I'll also remind everyone that they can always buy themselves a consolation prize anyway, and thus help thank the prize donors by buying one of their quality dulcimer offerings! See the top of this thread for the contact info and links of our four generous prize donators!
