The larger 3-stringer includes a slotted head with 3 geared tuners, a 40cm VSL and a 12cm x 9cm x 5cm wooden box as a resonator box. The smaller 2-stringer includes 2 ukulele friction tuners, a 38 cm VSL and a small tin similar to an Altoids tin, but a bit deeper, and with prettier artwork. Both use nylon ukulele strings and neither are loud. So, they make nice portable practice dulcimers for quiet environments.

    Thanks, guys.

    On the mini three stringer, I ran out of fret wire. I hope to locate a local source in China. If I can't, my next instrument will use cut nails for frets. Happy holidays...
