Hey rwarren.
Over the years I've used several items from the Happy Traum and the folks at Homespun. They are all really good. I used a couple of bluegrass packages (including the 4-hour bluegrass workout, which I highly recommend) and one harmony singing course (by Robin and Linda Williams) as well.
I don't know the Lorrain Lee Hammond dulcimer course, but she was a pioneer in the modern dulcimer and if you are a beginner, that is probably a good product.
I have a copy of the David Schnaufer DVD and can say that it's very good, but he doesn't teach a general approach to the dulcimer as much as teach a series of songs. I think the only general information he provides is some stuff on playing the major scale both up the fretboard and across the strings. But then he just goes into the songs. So the Schnaufer DVD would be good only if you want to learn those songs, whereas the Hammond CD set is probably a more coherent introduction to the dulcimer.
Those are the only two dulcimer items I know of offered by Happy Traum.
