Magic Mountain build by J.C. Shellnutt. Looks like Alaska Yellow Cedar with a Persimmon fretboard. Quality workmanship.

I’m listing this here in the hope that someone with a modest budget who will treasure and play this instrument will see this and bid. There is one bidder and the price is at $15.99. The auction ends on May 20th.

There are plenty of photos on the website. I think it’s been overlooked because the grain is so fine that in the lead auction photo, people probably think it’s plywood, plus it has a fairly bland auction title.

Just search “dulcimer” at ShopGoodwill - the listing title is “Vintage Natural Wood 35inch J6401/2.012 D’Addario Dulcimer Strings w/case” (you can’t search the title in the search bar but if you search dulcimer it will be easy to find). 

If you’re not familiar, it’s Goodwill’s answer to EBay. Stores from all over the country list items there. Make sure to check the shipping. 

There are some resellers using bidding software on the site but I managed to win a very nice dulcimer for little money and maybe you can, too.

Good luck!
