Was gonna call it "Bron Yr Arse!" since it doesn't do justice to Jimmy's work :-) but this cigar box dulcimer-guitar already has the DAD (from the GAD) so ha...

Beautiful tones and playing! Hope to hear more!
Sweet playing. Sweet dulci tone too
Well played Tom!
Wonderful. I hope you will post more. That is a beautiful instrument and maybe the tone wood paid off. Lovely music and playing. I put it on large screen to better see your playing and picks.Â
You and some others here get me wishing I could do what you do. I love that music, but somehow it just does not come out of my head and heart. I need to be thankful for what does come out. And most of the time I am.Â
Thanks.
Dave Lynas See my comment below. (I'm better with wood than technology :-)
Thanks guys! Hope you get this because I'm don't know if I can reply directly or just in the general comments. Using a tonewood sound board makes a big difference - and of course thicknessing and bracing it.
Dave: Those are Fred Kelly Freedom picks made of delrin (some synthetic hard plastic). They're a little shrill-sounding and I can't get the warmth of this instrument out of them, but not much choice since taking 1/4" of bone off my index and middle fingers during a battle of wills with my table joiner-planer a few years back :-)
I tried a bunch but these fit the best though I did need to smooth the edges with some super-fine grit.
I agree with Jim. Beautiful tone. Very sharp dulcitar and nice finger picks. What are those Rough Cut?
Nice one
Well done! This dulcitar has a beautiful tone!
