Hey... I'm just beginning on the dulcimer journey and I'm getting a used one. This is great information. Thanks for posting.
Glad it was helpful!
gosh this and the scrollhead how to video makes me want to line up all my dulcimers and guitars and string 'em! I don't play mostly collect LOL but that's changing! I was thrilled to actually tune my dulcimesr painlessly I had always been so intimidated esp when going to a group or class and everyone's tuned up in 5 seconds and I'm still struggling. but it wasn't that hard - go one way and it's wrong just switch it aroujnd
Thank von for Show me. I have thomann hora 1211. With a flat head.🧡
Great lesson
Thank you, Edward!
This is so helpful - and I wish I'd seen it before I finally dared to change my strings and didn't wrap them around the post before threading through the hole - I did the reverse, and the melody string won't hold the note. More strings now ordered.....Thank you!!!
Mandy here - maybe you can just take the string off and try putting it back on as I showed using the same string. Just wrap it around 1 less time and use plyers to pull it through. I reuse strings all the time.
Thank you so much for responding with an excellent suggestion! I'll try it.
