- A short example of using the 'thumbing' strum technique for playing noter drone dulcimer. The dulcimer is a replica of an Ed Thomas dulcimer c 1890 made by John Knopf.
That's really great, Robin! I had not expected that playing a piece like "Summertime" is possible on a traditional dulcimer (without half frets).
How is your dulcimer tuned here?
Hi, I was using DAG tuning. It is surprising just how many tunes will 'fit' a pure diatonic scale - you just need to have a play around with the modes a little - this is in dorian mode.
