I have been doing some research on the internet on the Electric Dulcimer Brian Jones was using on the Ed Sullivan show when he did "Lady Jane".From what I understand, he bought an Appalachian Mountain Dulcimer when he was on tour I'm the United States with the Rolling Stones. When he got back to the UK he had Mick Bennet and his team make him up a semi-acoustical electric version, known as the Vox Bijou, of which only 6 were ever made. Jones at one time or another owned 3 of them. http://bluesonline.weebly.com/weirdinstrument-dulcimer.html http://www.voxamps.com/history/ The original Dulcimer is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame In Cleveland, Ohio https://www.rockhall.com/
