Dulcimers
Easiest of all stringed instruments to play.
Warren A. May dulcimers are traditional, totally functional and beautiful instruments of distinction. They are made of solid woods: Black Walnut, Cherry, Poplar and unique selections such as Rosewood.
Each dulcimer has a hand-carved scroll and the tops and backs are book-matched (sawn from the same board with matching grain pattern). An aesthetic look and sound is produced in each instrument.
The fine finish is four coats of hand-rubbed lacquer. Each dulcimer
has 4 strings with a double melody string for optimum noting qualities. The
tuning keys are Grover Geared in Gold or Silver. Rosewood Pegs may be
ordered. Each dulcimer is hand-crafted,
assembled, carved, sanded, finished and precisely adjusted for the best sound
and ease of playing.
or f-holes for sound
holes on "Classic" Walnut or Cherry and Poplar models. Hummingbird Nine
and/or Knothole/Flowers on Wide & Hourglass models.
Every dulcimer is signed, dated, and numbered. It has a lifetime guaranteed to the original owner on construction and playability. Orders may be filled in 4 to 6 weeks.
