I've built 5 dulcimers. I consider the strum stick and can jo a dulcimer. They are three string. The other three are built to accommodate 4 strings but I only put thee on them, that way I always have an option. Watch Mandy Tyner's "Banjolemonade" on you tube post. She explains 2 string vs. 4. It makes sense

Hi Jack, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn about the dulcimer, and to meet some good people.
