1981 Jeremy Seeger Dulcimer
FOR SALE:instruments/music items/CDs/Wanted to Buy...
Hello, Jud, that is a very nice example of Jeremy's dulcimer building. He made for traditional styles of playing as he did not include a 6 1/2 fret on most of his instruments. There are two things that make this dulcimer unappealing to modern players; the lack of that fret and friction tuners. I would not like to see it changed as it is such a fine example of his work. Also, Jeremy is not well known as a dulcimer builder outside of the northeastern US. As to a selling price, I hesitate to offer one. If you put it in an auction, it could go for perhaps $300 or more. As a straight sale, I would guess maybe $150 to $200.
Oh, and by the way, those little blocks are fine tuners.
I hope this helps and gives you something to think about.
Ken
