I don't know yet, it should ship out on Monday! I have a cherry hourdrop built by Warren May and I love it for traditional tunes. Cherry is my favorite dulcimer tonewood.

That is a nice looking dulcimer. How does it sound?

I did find out he passed in 2013... I have found a couple examples of his work online, but was curious if anyone here owned an instrument or knew anything. I was just excited about the all cherry construction!!

Well, 3 minuts with Google tells me that he lives in Claremont, NC, apparently does not have a website or blog, and sells through Ebay and a couple of NC dulcimer shops.

Newest addition to the collection! It is all cherry, so I couldn't resist... Any info on the builder would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!
