Description
Two completed Oregon Timbrestix next to another one that had just been finished being fretted. These ship tomorrow to their new homes in the Midwest where they will bring good music and good luck to those who possess them. Thank you to all of you here who have purchased these instruments from Dave and I, and we hope to continue to bring you new musical endeavors out of wood
The response has been overwhelming.**Note me with any questions/purchase info.

They are tuned GDG, so anybody can play them 
I wish I could make them faster, but I like to take my time as each one is unique in shape and sound. Kind of like a banjo/ukulele mix.
Happy that you like them. If you ever order one I will make it a Hawaii special!Β

Chris, these are wonderful!!! Really like the stain on all of them

We used some really old varnish/finish recipes from the 1800s and incorporated them into the finishes on these. Although we did leave one dulcimer alone and added no color just a few clear coats and it looks super, you can see the lines of the wood interact as they travel

What do you think of the finished product? I was going to take a pic of all 10 completed instruments, but they sold so quick I only have shots of them in different stages, and not all together like I wanted for a good pic 
Thank you Helen!!!

Awesome , sure do I like the unique shape of them , good for you happy to hear things are going well

The shape was modified from the original design we found, we made it longer and wider and have a different system for the tuners and bridge. It is a nice feeling when you work hard on something and it actually comes out good

Dave is left handed and he plays these just fine. All you will have to do is change the top string to the bottom and bottom string to the top if need be
