cigarbox dulcimer made form vintage cigarbox and odds and sods of leftover wood. Handcarved violin style peg box, hand whittled tuning pegs, short scale. just some final touches before I learn to play it...

thanks Diane, not sure yet. at the moment it sounds like a cat that's swallowed a set of bagpipes... very strange lol

That's a great little instrument! How are you going to tune it?
