Many thanks for the warm welcome, Richard. And thank you also for providing me with a name for my disorder!

Thanks, Richard for your encouragement. There is a dulcimer club not far from me but they meet at a time when I can't attend. But I'm getting so much help and encouragement here!

Richard, I saw an old comment where you were interesteed in a Presnell. I have one that I am planning to sell, as I clear out my inventory in preparation for my eventual promotion.
It is a Cherry 6-string dulcimer that I bought for my collection 2 or 3 years ago. I bought it with a partner, then later I bought him out.
I have not played it, as I am really not a player.
If you are interested, let me know, and I'll send info and photos.
Thanks,
Bill Howard

Thanks Richard !
On starting a discussion, are you sending me the welcome via my profile ? I did start a new topic thread about a Warren May dulcimer. This site is kind of confusing/different than the guitar forum I frequent.
